¿f.l.a.w.l.e.s.s?
¿FLAWLESS?
For those who judge me on my skin,
Look in the mirror, can you say ‘I love myself’ like I can?
All you want is to tear me down.
Why? So I can stock up on your beauty cosmetics to fix myself?
Losing money on something I could never cover up forever.
Each penny wasted on foundation, eye shadow, lipstick, etc
Should have been spent towards sweets and presents
Showering myself with gifts because I am proud of who I am, for I am
FLAWLESS.
Forget the hate they spew,
Learn to love every inch of yourself.
Any imperfection you see is perfect to me,
Wanting to change should be a cardinal sin.
Losing weight isn’t necessary darling.
Erasing parts of you just makes you blurry,
Sharpen your pencils and draw them back,
Sharpie over it because you are
FLAWLESS.
Frankly I love my eyes,
Like the way they shine when I get
Animated, especially when I talk about theatre
Which I hope will lead me to the big
Leagues one day. So maybe
Each day I will think about my eyes
So when I fear I am not worthy they can remind me
Sweet girl, you are worth so much more than you believe. For you are
FLAWLESS!
