“I know my worth”

“I know my worth” – poem by Maurice HAKIZIMANA

I didn’t lose anything, no, I won;

I didn’t shed many tears, I quickly dried my tears,

I saw my life plan from afar, my tears and a smile on my face.

I really fell, oh it was a free fall without a parachute,

I fell like a sack of potatoes

He pushed me into the void from heights this “Blessed” this “Venerable” “Good Shepherd”

He threw me a bomb this oaf, this wolf in sheep’s clothing,

Yes I know the ground so well that I only look at the sky

Yes I hit rock bottom a thousand times! I know the ground, the dust!

Yes thanks to you blunderer I know that every time I go down, I will go back up! Awkward!

I am fascinated by the complexity of the human being that I learned to be myself.

I had to feel loneliness to learn to be in my own company

I learned to be alone and to discover my pleasant presence.

I learned to be sufficient to myself, me alone!

I sacrificed myself to help others from my adolescence,

I hit myself in the heat of the East and the cold of the North,

I killed myself to come to the aid of those of the South and those of the West,

I did not wait for them to ask me for help. Voluntary, but, alas!

I sought perfection in everything but I understood late that everything was imperfect, including me.

Today I only do what I must, as best I can, to my loved ones, yes to my loved ones

Today I let others, including mine, do what they want, as they want when they want.

Today I do not compete with anyone, I walk or I run at my own pace,

Today I slow down as I want, savoring my path, as I want.

Today I know that nothing is certain in this world, nothing!

Today I take advantage of the opportunity when it is time without waiting,

I know that I do not appropriate anything and no one for good

I know that no one belongs to me, for eternity

I let in, in my life, those who want it, when they want it, as they want it

I let out, from my life, those who want it, when they want it, as they want it

I do not let anyone, in my life, who is opportunistic, who is manipulative!

I do not let anyone, enter my life, dictate his or her opinion, interfere in his or her life!

I only let those who really care about me, for real, stay in my life

I no longer have a group of friends, I only keep individuals, real friends, age, race, and the number do not matter to me

I no longer demand loyalty, you are faithful or you are not; everything will end up being known,

I love myself, I love my life as it is, I love the ups and downs, the worst and the happiness, it is part of life

I love death, it is part of this life, here under the sun!

I love castles, apartments, houses, pavilions- our homes

I also love cemeteries, graves, steles and soles- our places of residence when we fall when we become tombs,

That is why as soon as I live I live fully, I savor every moment, every meal, every love

That is why I love to learn, work hard, learn from my mistakes and move forward,

That is why I love bitterness to appreciate happiness,

I will heal from my emotional wounds that my false brothers have done to me,

My bleeding heart will undoubtedly be repaired but never as before,

My soul will delight again, my life will be better today or tomorrow.

My Creator will always be by my side no matter what, without judging or condemning me

My real four loves myself included will never leave me and vice versa,

Yes I know my value my worth and it does not depend on others,

Yes I exist, I live, I am worth more than birds and winged animals that fly, aquatic animals that abound in the waters, and domestic and wild crawling animals of the earth, I know my worth

Yes I am worth much more than lilies of the fields, because even my hairs are numbered;

Yes I know my true worth no matter what you think!

I have activated self-love because I know my worth!

Long live self-love, long live the ability to love yourself unconditionally!
