Attention Ladies

She tugs at her shirt in an insecure manner Worried that everyone is looking at her Whispers surround her as she proceeds Her mind races, "I know that they're talking about me." She glances down at her shoes to monitor her stride To fall in front of this crowd, would surely be a crime Who is this woman that constantly fidgets? She's not one woman, but every woman, even though we don't like to admit We've all experienced those moments when our self-esteem lacks And insecurity begins to breathe down our backs Our thoughts suddenly so in the negative direction We begin to feel awkward when facing our own reflection We let the videos and media mold and shape us Not realizing that these things only rape us They rape our minds, Leaving behind Invisible scars Don't you see them when you look in the mirror Each complaint about your body, makes the scars clearer... My hair is too short, my breast are too small Life would be much better, If only I were tall My skin is too dark, my teeth are not straight I have definitely got to skip the biscuits on my next plate My smile should be brighter and my skin should have no flaws If only I could change it all... But you can't, so just get over it and let things be Learn how not to doubt your outer beauty And please don't disregard the loveliness within Because that is where the true beauty begins Stop pulling at your shirt and looking down when you walk And if you have something to say, then hold your head high when you talk Never be ashamed to be who you are Ladies, I think its time we embraced those invisible scars
