I have long pondered upon the meaning of acceptance

Both personally and externally

I haven't come to a conclusion just yet

Before I make my mind up on what it means to me

I have to explore all of its angles

Being someone who cannot accept love or appreciation

I don't deserve it

But that's only what I thought

I only thought that

Because that is what I think of myself

It must surely be how others see me

What a selfish thing to think.

But in reality,

I, and only I

Behold myself in that way

It doesn't matter what I constantly think of myself

Before myself stood someone that accepted me

I, for all my flaws and disorders

But accepted me

I, how could I ever find the words

But, thank you

I thank you.

With all my heart.
