Alice was the first woman
who told me I am beautiful.
We sat across from each other,
and she looked at me and asked,
“Do you know you are beautiful?”
Before I could answer Alice, she
she smiled and said,
“You are beautiful.
Don’t let anyone else make you feel otherwise.
Especially boys.
If they make you doubt it or question yourself,
remember,
You are beautiful, and I told you so.
If they want to use this as a compliment to undress you,
Remember,
my lips said it first.
You don’t need their affirmation.”
Alice then leaned in and asked,
“Now, has any boy told you so yet?”
I laughed.
Alice gave me a knowing look.
She said,
“Now, here is where you draw the line”.
And she started an education.
I don’t know if Alice still remembers her words,
but I do.
I am beautiful,
because my grandmother said so.
