Unchained Beauty: Shattering Society's Standards

"A Slam Poem Celebrating Self-Love and Liberation"

Society's beauty standards, oh what a tangled mess, A narrow path to follow, a weight upon our chests, They say beauty's a mold, we must squeeze into tight, But I'm here to break those chains and set our souls alight.

We won't be defined by the size or the shape, Our worth's not confined by the rules that they make, In a world so diverse, we're a kaleidoscope, We'll shatter those norms, and let our spirits elope.

Photoshopped illusions, airbrushed fantasy, They're selling us a dream that's a travesty, We're all unique paintings, with colors so bold, No canvas could hold us, our stories untold.

We won't be defined by the size or the shape, Our worth's not confined by the rules that they make, In a world so diverse, we're a kaleidoscope, We'll shatter those norms, and let our spirits elope.

Stretch marks, scars, and lines of grace, Each one's a testament to life's embrace, The wrinkles that form as we laugh and we cry, Are the truest of badges, so wear them with pride.

We won't be defined by the size or the shape, Our worth's not confined by the rules that they make, In a world so diverse, we're a kaleidoscope, We'll shatter those norms, and let our spirits elope.

No more hiding, no more shame, We're reclaiming our bodies, and playing our own game, Confidence blooms as we rise and we stand, Embracing ourselves, just as we'd planned.

We won't be defined by the size or the shape, Our worth's not confined by the rules that they make, In a world so diverse, we're a kaleidoscope, We'll shatter those norms, and let our spirits elope.

So here's to the rebels, the ones who defy, Society's shackles, reaching for the sky, In unity we rise, in diversity we thrive, Society's beauty standards, no longer will we abide.
