To the girls with shy hearts and nervous minds.
You are not a lone.
You are not insane because of the feel that your conscience gives you
You are not broken because of the words that your class mates speak.
You see ou are beauty because you have a story that is meant to be told and mind that is worth the life of a princess. Yet you have not had your happily ever after.
You have not yet received the invitation to the ball
And I am sorry.
I am sorry for all the twisted things that you have had to hear from the people that you thought were closest to you
I am sorry that men. I mean boys have fed you lies about who and what you should be.
Have a big ass and skinny waist
AT LEAST a c cup bra
Big blue eyes and long long hair.
You are beautiful without make up
Yet you should put some on to cover your acne.
You're freckles are beautiful.
Yet put lipstick on so your lips stand out.
You're eyelashes are so long
Yet fill in your eye brows so they are even.
I am so sorry that we are frowned upon when we are tying to be powerful
Yet told everyday to be strong.
To the boys with low self esteem and fear up to their ears.
You are also beautiful. You are also handsome. You are also a human
I am sorry we as a female population expect so much from you.
I am sorry that we on an everyday basis expect something from you. That you want you to be the one to fix us yet we don't help to fix you. I am sorry that we have been taught that we should be treated like a princess while we leave you to be our peasant.
We are wanting...
a man to
Be at least six foot tall
With nice muscles and a six pack
Have a good gpa
Be musically inclined
You have to cook
Be an athlete
Yet you are still human.
You are still amazing just the way you are.
You are a prince who is learning to be a king in this corrupted world of negatively.
I am sorry that we as a human population look to you young men as nothing but muscle and work ethic. Because you are more
You are told daily to protect the ones you love
Yet not many people are there to protect you.
To the teens of the world with broken dreams and broken hearts
you are wanted.
You are amazing
You have been through things that not everyone else has been through.
You are a rare few. The few that will soon learn that what happens to you today makes you stronger tomorrow.
You are kings and queens in the making.
So stand tall.
You are holding a weight that the person next to you can't hold.
You are holding power.
You just haven't learned how to use it yet.
