This was a really uplifting and bright poem. It brought a smile to my face by the end of it, I was very happy with the turn the poem took. It was a fairly hard hitting poem and I think you nailed the emotion of it very nicely indeed. There were instances where I thought punctuation at the end of the questions within the poem could have been beneficial to the impact of it but it's a very minimal thing that doesn't take much away from the poem.
Your poem encompasses the theme of the contest very well, you interpreted the objective nicely. It's very uplifting and a poem that I think might be able to help a lot of people who are struggling with self esteem issues. It was very well written and your choice of words was intriguing and wonderful. Very well done on the poem!
I'm really loving how this contest has brought out all of these really strong themes of self-love, and your poem definitely doesn't disappoint in that department! It delivers that message in a really lovely and uplifting way and coming away from the poem, I actually feel a little better about myself because everyone does have that one person that'll turn around and say "hey, you're fine the way you are" and I think it's that pinch of realism that makes me like this poem so much.
Your stanzas are all well-structured and the rhyme scheme really ties everything together perfectly. The only thing I noticed whilst reading was you're self should be yourself, but that's only a minor thing. Aside from that, this poem is really lovely, uplifting and conveys a really powerful message in an awesome way. Good job!
