Today, you thought, “I look beautiful today.”

You thought, “I look so beautiful I want to remember it forever.”

Today, you thought, “I look so beautiful I want everyone to see.”

Today, your hair was a river down your back.

Today, your eyes were the still point of the turning world.

Today, you could see the resemblance to your ancestors,

Could tell you are a direct descendant of stars.

Today, your winged eyeliner nearly flew off your face, it was so fly.

Today, there was a lipstick named after your pout.

Today, you loved the gap in your teeth.

Today, your freckles were sprinkles on ice cream.

Today, you had #nomakeup and #nofilter and you looked #flawless.

Today, you woke up like this.
Today, your apartment lit you up like a centerfold.

Today, you took a selfie from above because maybe that's how God sees you.

Today, you chose the rise filter because that's what you're gonna do.

Today, your iPhone was the Louvre and you were the Mona Lisa.

Today, Frida Kahlo would call your selfie stick a wand.

Today, the magazines are glossy haters.

Today, you are the front page babe of all your followers feeds.

Today, 52 people admit that they like your face.

Today, pride is no longer a sin.

Today, you don't want to be full of anything but yourself.

Today, you control the lens,
The light,
The angle,
The pose,
The gaze,
The face,
The filter,
The feeling,
The caption.
Today, you are in control of your own incredible body.

Today, millions of girls loved themselves in the face of a world that tells them not to.
