Katie

She is a waste of space.

A burden

Or at least that’s what she has been told

In reality, she is a goddess

Hourglass figure

5′2

Clear skin

Long blonde curls

Eyes bluer than the Pacific

Smile that lights up the world

Dimples that are perfectly placed

That’s not what she sees though

She sees how unsymmetrical her face is

She feels the constant back pain

She notices that once again, she can’t hear what someone has said because of her hearing loss

She gets frustrated because she once again cannot read her own words because of her blurry vision

What she doesn’t acknowledge is how

She spends her days helping others

She educates those who cannot educate themselves

She loves those who cannot love themself

And she takes in those who have no one else

All the while, she goes on believing she is a

~mistake~
