beauty is pain
that's what they tell the young girls
that looks matter more
than comfort
caked on makeup
that weighs your face down
tight clothes
that show off your body
but restricting your lungs
starving and counting calories
just to achieve the hourglass figure
plastic surgery and botox
just to meet the beauty standards
they go through all this pain
and suffering
just to reach the ideal image
that changes so quickly
so you can't keep up
and are constantly adjusting theirselves
trying to feel beautiful
but what they don't realize
is that no matter how much you try
to fit in
it will never be enough
beauty is what you make it
be comfortable in your own skin
wear what makes you feel good
eat when hungry
starving makes you feel worse
there is light at the end of the tunnel
i promise
