Video Girl


(poems go here) why do you so desperately seek attention? I just want to gather you all for an intervention It's a problem--- Epidemic that plagues the self-esteem of young women world wide Why do you seek make-up, hair extensions, and plastic surgery to hide? Behind the "ugly" truth of who you really are... Its not that your weren't beautiful before your enhancements it's not that you weren't good enough, but that you felt it could lead to advancements In your "career"in this industry that you so desperately seek to be apart of that you need to feel validated and to fill the void of "love" that maybe you didn't get from your father... maybe even an absentee mother but is that an excuse to put your body up to barter? maybe someone abused you verbally, mentally, physically, or emotionally? all of which is so prevalent in society You dream of being being that video girl-Ms. Minaj but do you realize she is just a Mirage? Plastic Why not just try to be the best YOU! think of the great things you could accomplish if you just changed your view of how you see yourself. Look in the mirror girl... NOT at that Video Girl
