Be Good To Yourself
Be good to yourself—
You deserve it.
Take care of yourself,
While you're here.
No one else can do it
Better than you.
Hold yourself up.
Don't be your worst enemy
Or a 'self hater'—
Like some love to do.
Live and enjoy life.
Look in the mirror and smile.
Believe that good things
Will happen for you.
Be grateful that you were
A candidate for life.
And let such gratitude
Show.
Make the best choices for yourself.
Exercise. Rest.
And eat properly.
For on such things the body thrives.
Love yourself, ...
