I wrote this to encourage a group of friends that did not have belief in their writing.
Do you know how beautiful you are?
Although you lack confidence
In your own ability,
Have such fragility,
You express well and make sense,
As a writer I believe you could go far.

Do you know how wonderful you are?
For you may lack belief,
In your achieving,
Yourself deceiving,
You are a strength in grief,
As a friend your help heals any scar.

Do you know how special you really are?
You think you lack knowledge,
Stand near the back
Avoid the main track,
Teeter sometimes on sanity’s edge.
You're uniqueness shines from afar.

Do you know how beautiful you are?
For I am honestly telling you
You don’t lack choice
To use your own voice,
To record, to yourself be true.
Now bravely hang your dreams upon a star.
