Flaws,
that's all I see.
When I look at the reflection in the mirror.
Acne on my face,
Thick thighs,
and a pudgy stomach.
Mocking me everyday.
Acne,
need make-up to cover up so no one can see the imperfections on my face.
Take medication that can harm my kidneys.
Wash face twice a day
Morning
and
Night.
Nothing works, pain for nothing.
Thick thighs,
no short shorts
No skinny jeans.
Scared to wear anything short
Have to keep pulling them down as they ride up.
Feel fat every time I look in the mirror.
Pudgy stomach
sticking out.
No matter what I do,
Exercising, eating healthy, and pills.
It's still there
Reminding me I'm not skinny enough.
But it's
who I am.
Flaws make me unique to the world.
I may not always love them. But it's me.
