Sugar Free Jelly


Why did he buy the sugar free jelly?

Dad what's wrong with sugar

It makes me happy. Why do I need to watch my weight?

What I eat won't define me and

Regular jelly suits me just fine.

My curves are a part of me.

I don't have to change how I am for anyone.

A smear of jelly wont kill me,

The sugar free stuff tastes like hair gel anyhow.

 

I am beautiful and no amount of jelly or anything else for that matter will change that.

Humans come in all sorts of shapes and sizes,

We aren't mean to look the same.

Cheers to strawberry jelly

I think I'll have some chocolate smear as well.
