beYOUtiful

WIth scars on my skin

Not the perfect Victorias Secret mold

I cant find perfection when I look in the mirror

 

Society has drilled into our head

Pefection is skinny, perfection is tall

Perfection is making yourself be somoene else

 

THe makeup we buy,

Straightening, curling, then straightening our hair again

We do it to fit in, because we arent happy with our body

 

But be you, that is beYOUtiful

Be you, that is who you are

Be you, that shines the most when you smile

 

Being yourself, is the most beYOUtiful thing you can be

So I say, be you, be something you are happy with

So I say, be you, you are beYOUtiful
