Mirror, Mirror, on the wall,
Who's the most beautiful of them all?
The one who is tiny and short,
or the one who stands towering tall?
Why are people in a race for beauty? To fetch it all?A smile that's a bit crooked,
A nose that's a bit asymmetrical,
Why is inner beauty always so overlook-ed?
Why do your facial features need to be all perfect, all geometrical?The nails that are well manicured,
The hair that are gorgeous,
Why does everything need to be that configured?
Why about a certain standard of beauty we must always be so cautious?The clothes that don't fit you,
The shape of the eyes that doesn't pass the beauty-check for the onlookers,
Do we really need to talk about these standards, do we even need to argue?
Because, in the end these aren't even perfect for the good-lookers!Look at yourself in a passing by shop's window,
How imperfect you are, but how your soul and mind is so clean though,
Go to the streets and walk confidently by spreading your invisible wings like a flamingo,
Make them awestruck with your unique beauty and paint the town indigo!I'm not in a good shape!
I'm always in a clumsy state!
Oh, my body hairs grows out like an ape,
Why am I born not so flawless, why is this my fate?Give yourself some time, rethink and revise,
You'll realise you are differently beautiful and only one to exist in your premise.
Be wise, get friendly with your ‘not seen before like beauty’, make some allies.
You are in great size with some healthy thighs, then let them despise.You are a fine art that God has created,
You cannot be measured in beauty and can never be rated,
C'mon this topic should be old by now and never be debated,
For the ones that seldom judge you, those who stay seated.You are a fine art that your parents have passionately stitched,
Don't let this go just because the judging eye's brains lay glitched.
Don't question your body, colour, shape and choices, never make them feel ditched,
If the people say otherwise, they are indeed interested in your unstandardized beauty, so let them stay bewitched!🖤Based on the topic of:
