Stop Being Pitiful

I am beautiful, so stop being pitiful, you can't change me, I'm God's creation you see, I may not have the looks in all the pictures I took, but I've got bass that I can't replace. My personality is wild and weird, but I don't care, cause normal doesn't compare. Your fist and your words will hurt, but you cannot stop me from getting back up from the dirt, I may be short, but my standards are tall, there's nothing more you can do to make me feel more small, so go ahead and keep putting others down, they will rise, and you will still be on the ground. So are you mad or not? Cause it seems like your salty that's all!

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested.
