Inspirational Thing

Sorry,



But I'm not pretty


Or skinny


Or especially smart.


There's no perfect boy


For me to fall for.


They're still just a bit too immature


I am okay the way I am.






Where are our gay princesses?


Or transgendered princes?


And why don't any of the Disney stars


Have mental disabilities?


If we are really accepted,


Any way we are,


Why just a cute man


And a pretty woman ?






I am me.


Loud,


Easily excited,


And socially awkward.


I am strange.


Anyone can be unique.


Everyone is unique.


No politically correctness here


STRANGE.


I am good the way I am.






Where are our peace parades?


Our revolutions?


I want change,


And not the kind with Lincoln's head on it.






“Thin is Fab”


“Bikini Bod”


“Lose Weight Quick!”


The magazines tell us


That we have to be thin


To be acceptable,


To be beautiful,


To be okay.


We're not all airbrushed,


With long legs


And perfect skin.


I am perfect the way I am.
