Who says what is beautiful?

Does society say if I am beautiful?

Or do I?

If society said who was beautiful

Then I am not

My hair is messy

I need to lose weight

I'm too short

My toes are stubby

My eyes don't match

I can't make pouty lips

I don't wear skirts up to my ass

I don't wear dresses that show my tits

To some, my boobs are too big

I never remember to paint my nails

I don't wear enough make-up

I have too much acne

I have stretch marks

I have scars

But you know what?

Society doesn't tell me I am beautiful

Because I think I am

I like my curves

And have no shame in my scars

I can't change my genetics

I love my hair

I don't have the time to paint my nails

And my stretch marks don't define me

I choose not to dress like a skank

And make-up bugs me

I have hormones

So I have acne

But so do you

So not everyone wants to date me

So I am not typically pretty

But society tells me nothing

I do

And I'm beautiful inside and out.
