Just As You Are

You're okay
Beautiful, in fact
Just as you are
You need only
Be
Stand
In the beauty
Of this day
No pretzel twists
Or acrobatics
Trying to please others
Or that voice in your head
With all it's "shoulds"
Squander not your energy
On what doesn't matter
Accept YOU
Rejoice in right NOW
Just as it is
And the sheer force
Of your soul
Shining forth the light
You are no longer blocking
Will carry you
To your dreams
And beyond
