The question that stands out to me is not “must I break myself to fit their vow?”

It is: why is their vow still on the table as an authority over your body?

This question is the most valid question, and anyone reading this should definitely think it that way about why. Once the insecurity creeps in you,the depth of self hatred courses through veins and it's seemingly hard to picture and q this type of stuffs but I'm glad you could get to the depth of that. Thank you so much for reading

“Will I ever be enough as I am now?

Or must I break my

self to fit their vow?” Amazing ending

One can feel that this is written straight from the heart. And yes, no matter what the beauty industry and its powerful marketing apparatus tries to convince you, beauty does come from the light within. 💕

"Is beauty really etched in bone and skin?

Or in the storms one carries within?"

DEFINITELY A QUOTABLE BANGER!!!
