Poem:
Too fat for a teen
Too short to fit in
Too ugly to be seen
Am I that disgusting?
I hate the truth,
Sweat under my foot.
No one can soothe.
Cuz everyone's rude.
I am worthy,
I should be proud of me,
But insecurity runs through my body,
Especially I am fat and ugly.
I don't wanna tell a lie
I don't wanna have to hide
I see it all in their eyes
That I am not their type.
They all let me down,
Should I step back?
Seeing all of their frown,
Because I am around.
Now tell me,
Is beauty is based on our body?
Is respect is based on our beauty?
What a destructive society.
Less Confidence,
Creating a fence,
I am not that dense
To not hear their judgements.
I am me,
Different from what the others see,
Insulting me is their hobby.
Now I realize, living isn't easy, where I can't be me.
