Just Words - Original Poem

Ugly. Stupid. Weird.
Disgrace. Beautiful. Mean.
Nice. Strong. Weak.
How can I be all of those?
No one every stops being insulted,
People canot not judge.
But you know what?
None of those words matter
Until, of course, you decide they are true.
Then every moment you spent growing,
Forming you as you are,
Was a pathedic little waste of time.
So don't listen,
Maybe you are some of those,
Maybe not.
Take in the complements,
Erase the insults from your memory,
They never happened,
Unless you believed the words they were saying.
