'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder'To an extent that phrase is true,
But really nowadays
It isn't up to you
To be thin is to be beautiful
That's what we all think
But the idea of weight controls people
They shrink, and shrink, and shrink
You're given figure
You cannot choose it
'Your body must be perfect
Or else what use is it?'
We have this mindset
This belief, this ideal
But when it comes down to it,
This isn't real
If beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Why is beauty defined?
Because beauty is in the eye no longer
It's in the beholder's mind.

A book of small poetry
PoetryThis is going to be a book of some poems I've written because I'm new and original. Some will be me ranting about humanity so, I suppose, I apologise if that annoys you.
