Am I Beautiful Now
Am I beautiful now?
I had a great day, trying to find my way.
Came across your commercial and ads, and my eyes became fixated on the images you had showed. The perfect model, the perfect soul. The completeness and the neatness. I thought to myself, “yes girl, you need this...”
So I went in my room, and I glanced in the mirror to see myself more clearer. And it became clear to me- all my flaws, OMG, oh my gosh; I can’t believe this is me. So I ran to the toilet and let it all out from my mouth. I can’t believe that I got it all out. Now look at me... I can see that I am closer to being all I can be. Give me some time, pass me some magazines. I want to beautiful in the spread. Oh these thighs are more than I can carry, this load, want to explode. Been eating too much, I'm way out of touch. Really I can’t eat, it’s too much. Do they see what I see? If you don’t you’re way outta touch…
Because I am beautiful.
Look at me now, don’t ask me how, because I'm not too proud. The bucket please… pass it around. I can’t hold it down - I need it out and released right now! I am so proud. Used to be big now I am small, thank you-you all for all the support. I can’t thank you enough for holding me down. I am beautiful, I can wear whatever I want, I hop and then jump. I love food so much but I can go back now.
YOU Love me….
