“Please don’t let it make you sad
Stop looking at those posts that are making you feel bad
We are not all suppose to be the same
All that media creating shame
Who cares if your tummy wobbles a bit
Who cares if you aren’t what the media calls fit
Those perfect bodies created with a filter
Are making you feel out of kilter
Unfollow the people that mess with your head
Delete the pages that stop you getting out of bed
Remember we are all unique
Let’s give this life another peak
Look at everyone tall and small
We must learn to love them all
Our bodies carry the important part
Our bodies are a vessel for our heart
Perfect nails and perfect hair
Yet all they can do is stop and stare
They are scared of those who chose to love from the heart
They are scared if they do they will fall apart
Never stop being you
Never stop others too
Embracing their curves in all their glory
This is when we start to change the story
Focus on us all being diverse
Body shaming we can then disperse
Encourage your friends to step out and be seen
You don’t have to be like every other teen
The one that goes against the grain
Is the one who truly will gain
They will create a life that is uniquely theirs
They truly don’t care for being millionaires
So please do remember this when you start to feel low
Believe in yourself and let the negativity go
Allow yourself to walk boldly into that room
Allow yourself to bloom
