Poems of the Young one

I dont like my body

In the mirror, you see a stranger staring back

With every flaw and imperfection, you start to crack

You hate your body, despise every curve and line

You wish you could escape, leave it all behind.

You try to cover up, hide in baggy clothes

But nothing can disguise the pain, the lows

You compare yourself to others, feeling inadequate

Wondering why you were made this way, feeling so frustrated.

Your mind fills with toxic thoughts, self-hatred grows

You long to be someone else, anything but this throes

You punish yourself with restrictive diets and exercise

But the more you try to change, the more the pain multiplies.

You avoid social situations, afraid of judgment and stares

You feel like a prisoner, trapped in your own despair

You cry yourself to sleep, wondering when it will end

Hoping for a way out, a chance to finally mend.

But deep down, you know the truth you must face

That hating your body only brings disgrace

You are more than skin and bones, more than what you see

You are a soul worth loving, worthy of being free.

So embrace yourself, flaws and all, for you are unique

A masterpiece of creation, not a critique

Learn to love your body, for it carries you through

Life's journey, strong and resilient, always true.
