Love the Reflection

Er Ahmad Junaid

Before you seek the world’s embrace,
Look in the mirror, find your face.
Not just the skin, but what’s within,
The gentle heart, the quiet grin.

You are the poem you’ve never read,
A sky of dreams above your head.
No need to wait for someone’s nod,
Your worth is sealed by the hand of God.

Love yourself in every scar,
In where you are and who you are.
For when you hold your soul with care,
You’ll find that love is everywhere.
