Size 0 Society

A Poem by Fernanda

Little girl sitting in the hall
Playing with a doll
Blonde, skinny, pretty
Why cant I look like that at all?

Little girl sitting in the hall
Got a DVD, got her first CD
They're all so pretty
Why can’t I look like that at all?

Little girl sitting in the hall
Reading a magazine
Models in bikinis
Blonde, skinny, pretty
Why can’t I look like that at all?

Time passes, things don't change
Society's beauty stays the same
She does it all to change her face
Why wasn't she born that way?

Food is the enemy, toothbrushes best friends
Natural is ugly, make-up will help
Smart is stupid, hot is the thing
The inside won't matter, the cover is the deal

Zero calories, zero her size
She will look pretty
Harder she'll try
She'll stop eating
She'll do anything
Why can't I look like that at all?

Size zero society broke her
But now she can fit in
Size zero society killed her
But she looked so happy

Society of the hypocrites
Will kill then will cry
If we don't change it
We all will die
