I used to think men
should be more like books
Both you cannot
judge by looks...

If I didn't want to finish reading
I put it down... no heart was bleeding

A book will never fuss or fight
It will stay with you
through the night...

It doesn't smoke. It doesn't drink.
It won't leave toothpaste
in the sink!

It doesn't binge... it don't eat...
It won't leave up the toilet seat!

It don't forget. It doesn't mope.
It won't hog the TV remote!

It doesn't have to have
The last say...
It doesn't have legs

to walk away.

But it's not soft. It isn't warm.
It doesn't keep you
safe from harm.

Even though it makes no fuss
It can't think. It can't discuss.

Even though it has its charms
it can't hold you in its arms.

It doesn't pine. It doesn't miss.
It can't hug and it can't kiss.

So now I think on it again...
... I think BOOKS should be
             more like MEN!!!

IS THIS WHAT PERFECT LOOKS LIKE?
Skinny legs, bigger *******
Is all they want to see.
Flawless skin, tiny waists
(Obviously) the opposite of me.
Beautiful is thin
And if I starve myself,
Beauty is what I win.
People said, beauty is about the
Size of the *******, the colour of the skin,
The flatness of one's stomach
In weight and fashion look.

To me, there's only one beauty.
The one wherein you're contented;
Where you learn to accept and love
Your own beautiful you.
Imperfections, mistakes, flaws and all,
The beauty that really matters
Lies in our hearts, our core;
Cleansed by good conscience.
Because when you love what's in your inside,
You yourself will love what's outside even more.
