I Am Beautiful

My stomach is not flat 
And my jeans only do so well covering my stretchmarks 
But that does not make me less beautiful 
It does not make me any different than the girls in the movies
We are the same people 
Making the same mistakes 
Living the same lives
So does the size of my waist matter 
I am not beautiful because of my bra size 
I am beautiful because of my smile 
I am beautiful because of who I am 
Not who I  look like
