" Have I Told You, You're Beautiful?"

Style <------------ Well, that's not quite arranged yet...Set in depth through the cool waters of t-shirt & jeans...Easy enough appearing skinny and lean...as a "cutie" whispered...listening through the eyes of certain guys.... as "sexy" is thrown to the girl with the wide hips & thick thighs... Surprised? Never! Predicted more or less like the temperatures of our daily weather... Whether or not my ears were tuned in... the same station played... assisting the questioning shots of reasoning behind my body layout... Doubt now exceeding confidence...while holding on to dear innocence..time and time again...as low-self esteem becomes kin outlawing any relation of comfort within my own skin...Then, so bent over on physical societal benchmarks lifting my weight of low-self image...limiting myself within the box of matches already lost..costing unnecessary workouts practicing the down-sizing of a gifted reflection...Reflecting diminishing returns with each added articulated compliment.... substituting inner heart for the likes of outer beauty...through close evaluation, currently projecting insufficient funding in this luminous check, back-grounding me into the right wires through speakers of glowing fires...spreading flames...rising this temperature to the proper state of mind...Aligned on the track of my uniqueness...Blossoming as a bright flower...with the sweet aroma of personality..defined beyond a pretty face...laced in humility...avoiding disruptive explosions...constant in the reaching of tranquility...Inclined to inspiring... ladies like me... to be...detached from the self-strife... stop stabbing your beauty...let go of the knife... I guess I said all this to simply put to shame the crippling "model imagery" game and state: YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!
