Poem
Five Letter Word Theres a five letter word thats messing with people’s heads It a five letter word that causes so much stress and you wouldnt think that a five letter word could do so much damage but that five letter word carries so much baggage It’s the reason we see ourselves as too fat or too skinny or in a way that’s so unappealing upset with our appearance cause we never learned to accept ourselves to cherish ourselves to take care ourselves and not mess up ourselves to say “I don’t care what anybody thinks” “It doesn’t matter because this is me” cause in just one blink we could be gone and I dont want to waste my life trying to please others without pleasing me You see this word did a number on me it wrote the laws I didnt fit the script so it took away who I was this word was the bricks weighing me down as I struggled to break free and lift off the ground and this word had me all tied up with my thoughts and emotions They just sat in a cup detached from me the reason I couldn’t see clearly what’s missing Me! that’s right I was clearly missing me cause I was too focused on this word that drowned me dragged me and eventually buried me I didn’t know a word could be so powerful That it could make me forget that I am wonderful Beatiful and magical Mystical and lyrical What he made me to be and these are just words to describe me theres tons out there I hope that you can see that your more than what this word says you should be be happy in your skin and not settle to fit in cause I let this happen and I lost my way but eventually I was able to get away I’m telling you this because I knew What it’s like to let MEDIA define you
