Ain't I myself hero? Reflecting in my mirror with a deep smile on my cracked lips Remembering the pains I've survived. Oh my darling me, walked through black mud streets in painful legs to school In just flip flop slippers on, Not a sock worn Just visible scars Left seen by eyes the way they are. I've been called fat a million times how many things I've got to fight, the strangling thoughts of body shape feeling ugly like a certain ape, Today I laugh at such words and when unpleasant words comes by I laugh or smile through it all.
