Society View of Beauty
Society veiw of beauty
Beauty lies on the eye
of the Beholder
They say
Like the society
Design it own way
Of beauty
Society view of beauty
Too many depression
All over places
As no notice in the media
Neither do eyes see to care
Too many insecurity
All over places
For this society view
Of beauty many can't
Fit in
Too many illness from
Stress as doctors grow
In jobs all over places
For the beauty so many earn
Don't matter not at all
As life mean less to them
Society view of beauty
Shola was a big girl
As fat as she is
She Is ugly to her society
As she was isolated
Cos of her size
Society view if beauty
At school her name
Is never mentioned
But with the mention
Of the fat girl
That serve as her name
Shola felt issolated
As skinny ladies muck her
Well as the boys
At street shola is double
Looked as a stranger
As shola could not handle
It any more
Just as life is beautiful
At a book shop
She meet a man
Who saw her beyond the
Society view of beauty
Society view of beauty
On a beautiful day
Shola loves novels
As she do practices
All it take to slim down
Yet to no avail
No kilo lost
No waist loss
On this day just as shola
Walk in a shop
Searching for a novel again
Here come this young
Handsome guy
As he liked all about
Shola
With time
They feel in love
Finally got married
With the love from
This man
Shola became free
From the captive of the
society veiw of beauty
Society veiw of beauty
Beauty lies on the eye
Of the beholder not
The society
How you see yourself
Is the beauty that count
The trends of beauty today
Reduce many to fear of self
As reality reveal It damage
The image on high promotion
The trends invoke
The fast push of style
From our media
Is killing nature
As systematically
It secretly drains our soul
To vanity
Above all
See yourself right
And that will do you good
For on your eye is the real
Beauty of you
Not the
Society view of beauty
