Barbie
Hourglass, tiny waist,
perfect hair, pretty face
Crystal clear, porcelain skin
24/7 spent in the gym
Water only, no food diet
The media is a silent tyrant
That tells me all I need to do
Is grow up fast and look like you
A model perfect all around
A beauty queen who takes the crown
A perfect smile, straight and white
All my efforts in despite
My thighs won’t ever have a gap
My stomach isn’t always flat
My hair gets frizzy in the rain
I hate High heels they’re such a pain
And When I have a daughter
I hope to warn her of the lies
That cling to your subconscous
And make you worry about your size
No matter what you look like
You’ll always see a flaw
But accept the ones you can not change
For what they really are- apart of you
