You have curly hair
You straighten it everyday
You have straight hair
Curlers every morning
For curly hair
Short you want to be taller
Tall and you wish to be shorter
Blonde a red head
Red head wants silky black
Black wants platinum blonde
Always needing to lose 10 pounds
Having a hard time gaining 10 pounds
Colour of your skin
Too dark, too mixed, too light
Not pink enough, too yellow
Eyes are brown, caramel, ocean blue, grey
Athletic, curvy, lean, lazy
Dissatisfied with what you were born with....
Surgically enhance all the mistakes
Born with a ****, born with a ****
Born with both
Dissatisfied
Tearing ourselves apart
Taking the proverbial knife
To tear away all the parts that do not feel right
Full head of hair, receding, partially bald
Shave it all off
Unhappy with pieces of you
When do we finally accept
When do we love
All the parts of you
Love and accept
Is it when were sitting
Struggling to take a breathe
When we finally realize
It all did not matter
If love did not come from within
Love of all imperfections
To embrace im-perfect
I'm perfect
Just as I am
No need to keep battering
Segments of you
Let love find you
~Divine
Tearing yourself apart is easy, we have been doing it for too long.
