Just a little poem...
Why do you dislike me?
Because my skin color is different?
Because my eyes are brown?
Because I do not allow pressure?
Is it because I always stand my ground?
Is it because I succeeded? Is it because I am better off than you?
Is it because I think for myself, have an opinion, and always stay true to myself?
Is it because I'm too skinny? or is it because I'm too big?
Is it the holes in my jeans? Although I am clean
Is it the scar on my face? which has its own story to tell?
Is it my name..?
Or is it because I dare to be different, because you are all the same?
Is it because I'm a woman and never let that be a reason to not do something?
Is it because I was expected to be a failure yet I arose?
Or maybe it's because I'm 3 cups smaller than the average woman with some fine lines on my face, yet I carry myself with beauty and grace?
I know it makes you angry, to see that I'm still proud of what I am today
Because I am beautiful and God made no mistakes when he made me |

Thank you Sophias,
Yes I wrote it. That day so many people were coming to me with so much sadness and I realized that so many people (women) go through so much and I decided to write this in hope that whoever reads this can find strength |
