inadequate?
I've had it...
being compared to women
who don't compare to me
by people who don't know me
won't take the time to show me
decency
to even try
not pretty...
by who's standards?
by the people who can't see
beyond hair texture?
by imperfect judgmental human beings
feigns
for a Europeans
"she was a beautiful girl"
is he telling me I'm not beautiful enough
that if I was liquid in his cup...
his cup would be half full
and she would fill it up?
if I were a little taller
would I reach the mark
or maybe my skin is just too dark
how are you measuring my beauty
because by your standards
you might always see
inadequacy

yaayyy!! love it. i love that you are basically taking a positive spin on it.
I wrote something couple years back detailing the flaws that society deemed that i have. i read it to my mother and she said "you really don't like that person".. it was simple yet profound because it showed me how much i don't like myself.
obviously you are loving yourself (no homo) and have fallen in love with accepting yourself by your own standards and enjoy being who you are. What an empowering feeling! Who is to judge beauty? people in the US struggle to lose weight, while in parts of africa to be thin is a sign of poverty so they fatten up their wives.
lol this world is such a funny place you can only be you and fook what others may think...
what a refreshing read :D ok i gone lol
