#youareperfect
I’m tired of these misconceptions The expectation for perfection Everyone is pointed in the wrong direction They are the light of the world so let us be their inspiration hold a candle in their honor and let’s begin the celebration! Inconceivable mysteries hidden in the minds of young children They are the ones that see but do not expect perfection I’m not perfect, but soon you’ll begin to see That perfect is not the thing to be Because what is inside is the only explanation you could ever need Innocence is what’s inside And that’s the beauty of it, you see In their beautiful, untainted minds Perfection is an idea that exists in everything Everything big, everything small Children see the beauty in it all Why can’t we see from the eyes of children? That innocence is lost in the older generation We’ve seen the horror and pain Again and again We’ve got so caught up in drama and evil, that we no longer see the beauty and perfection It’s a sad, sad thing that this world is coming to But children, they see right through

Needn't Be Perfect *children* YOU ARE WONDERFUL
The day I wished for you to see, That you were born to be free. You were created with an Artist's hand, You were formed from Mighty Breath and sand. How I long for you to know your worth, You have been perfect since your birth. Stop judging an artwork so rare, And start handling yourself with care. You know not the beauty that you hold, You were created to be both brave and bold. Stand up and don't give an ear, To all the negative comments born from fear. -ZvZ-

The day I wished
She felt ugly, from the inside and out Her stomach never small enough to satisfy oneself She turned to her side, and cried while staring at the mirror The reflection that shown back at her, made her feel insecure She said she wasn't hungry, as she began to starve herself The craving that built up inside, did anything but help The bones began to show, and her frown began to widen Her grotesque sticklike figure, began to leave her frightened Finally she realized, she was beautiful before As her sticklike figure faded, and she began to eat once more

Ugly
No matter how many times someone tells you that you are smart or that you are stupid, you are no more or less intelligent after those comments. No matter how many time someone tells you that you're pretty or that you are ugly, you are no more or less beautiful after those comments. Only your opinion of yourself matters. No one can change the way you feel about yourself unless you let their comments influence you. You are whatever you want to be. You are whatever you aspire to be. You are you and that's all that matters.
