Thoughts Of A Young Girl

They Say

They say your complexion is dark,
No one is going to like it so far.
They say you are too fat or thin,
Taunts like we have done a sin.
They say your dreams are two high than you are.
They say your height is too short;
They say your nose is too long,
They say you belong from a lower cast,
So you can't laugh.
They say you're poor so can't climb a mountain.
They say you don't have anything so you shouldn't walk like a star.
They say you will never get success because you don't have good grades.
We should understand that's the way the world is and they will always say something.
But we should be strong and prove them that they are wrong.
We should know we're not bad.
It's that they're always willing to say something bad.
We should show them that it doesn't matter to us what they say.

It's not that we are born bad it's that we're born in a judgemental world.
