Picking Me Apart


Picking me apart
Like I always do
I'm "fat, ugly"
How I wish it weren't true!

I look into the mirror
Sometimes I look all right
There are things I could work on
How I wish I weren't in this plight!

Maybe I'm depressed
I'm not "fat" anymore
Not "Top Model" skinny
And definitely not a whore

Most times I'm happy
Sometimes I'm not
My mind plays games with me
Tears up my positive thoughts

It tells me I'm stupid
At least it's honest with me
It shows me the flaws
Of my harsh reality
A poem I'm not proud of.

No. Just, no. Pardon my swearing, but fuck that, and fuck them.
I guarantee you're absolutely beautiful. I can tell that without even looking at you. 
You ARE beautiful, and you have to KNOW that. If you're taking their criticisms to heart, then take my compliments to heart in equal measure. You ARE beautiful. You're beautiful, stunning, and gorgeous.
Fuck anyone that says otherwise.
