I do not have an hourglass figure But I do cast a shadow that stretches beyond The shape of my hips I do not have toned features But I am stronger than what you can see Under my skin I do not have manicured nails Because I dig with with my bare hands And rip out the weeds and the lies I tell myself That I am not attractive Because I’m not the one defined that word But I am the one who wants to change it

I am not attractive
I do not have an hourglass figure But I do cast a shadow that stretches beyond The shape of my hips I do not have toned features But I am stronger than what you can see Under my skin I do not have manicured nails Because I dig with with my bare hands And rip out the weeds and the lies I tell myself That I am not attractive Because I’m not the one defined that word But I am the one who wants to change it
