#bodyshame - Hello Poetry

i hated my body but today i realized that hate was never emerged from my heart it was the insecurity of others they sprinkled it like salt on me to feel superior and what a stupid soul i was just to fit in small size i hated my curves like i wasn't meant to be pretty as the standards were to small for my double XL size

What A Waste They say looking down their noses. She used to be so skinny. Pretty even, all those moons ago. See Her Now Fat, lonely, and ashamed of herself. Her humanity disappearing with every bite. No one could love her... not a pig like her.

"Don't look at me like that" Thin or Fat Why should you get to body shame me? So as to get fame And feel like u've conquered someone who wasn't armed.. Am human just like you, with legs & arms But you don't get to see that You see only what you wanna see The flaws that makes you tick Don't look at me that way Yeah those are my scars now Made by your claws They clawed deep into my inner being Leaving a scar too deep to be seen With a sword depression battles in I yield Am like a broken glass now Too shattered to feel whole All because you looked at me that way No one is perfect But we are close to perfection in our own way... Am awake now No more in the nightmare you built me Don't look at me like that For I am beautiful.

Beauty Is an expectation in our society today Makeup Makes us up Clothes Become who we are Beauty Was invented to hide one's scars Makeup Gives us a mask Clothes Let us redesign who we are Beauty Is what drives us crazy Girls Are killing themselves, to find someone who'd **** for them Beauty Boys face it too Pressure To look impressive Desire To be desirable Beauty The measurement of it Is what should be blamed, for our troubles Not Beauty itself.
