I Am Flawless


Big brown eyes,

Maybe too slim, 

Maybe too loud, 

Hair too long,

Maybe too out of control,

We see how the media depicts us, 

Women especially,

No,

I don't look like her, or him, or that gorgeous being on television, 

I look like me, 

And I can't change that,

So its about time we take a stand,

Everyone start accepting themselves,

Who cares what they think of me, you, or us?

I am strong, 

I am intelligent, 

I am flawless,

And so are you.
