How To Start Over


 

Beauty comes in many shape and sizes.

Big, small, thick, skinny.

Everyone is made different.

Unique in your way

No one is the same.


Cutie is what you get called by your lover.

Cute or not.

You will be loved unconditionally.

That is something that doesn’t change.


Ugly is what people say to make themselves feel better.

Don’t take it to the heart.

We all strive for the same thing.

Beauty.


This is what we believe life should be like.

It is the total opposite.

As generation continue to grow,

Life becomes more corrupt.

Everyone just bears with it.

What have we created?

We need to start over.

We shouldn’t live like this.


Start over, start good.
