I Am Me

Even though people are mean, it's always nice to be positive on your image. (please don't mind my awful formatting)

You see, I have a heart but it was torn apart. 

My size isn't small and I'm not tall, but that's because I'm not a doll.

I am me, I am unique, not as pretty as a boutique but only I can say who I am.

You say I'm too big for a dress, pfft only you can make up that mess of lies because I feel free in it.

They say too much makeup makes you fake, but not enough makes you look like you're on a break.

But who cares? 

What I think about myself is what matters, whether I like pink or blue or if I knew who I was without your help.

I may be large but that doesn't mean I can't charge and run like a bull in a race, I have a fast pace and it's where I like it.

My face isn't a place you can just erase, it's beautiful in its own way and that's why I love it.

I am me, I can sting like a bee if I really wanted to.

Don't think that just because I'm a girl, I can't hurl a ball in baseball.. I will prove you wrong.

I love my strength, it lets my go amazing lengths despite the short legs.

I'm short, but that makes me good at certain sports, although.. I don't look good in shorts.

I am positive towards myself because being negative can lead to many bad things.

I love myself and I'm not some book on a shelf, you can't judge me by my cover without giving me a nudge to see what I'm like first.

Author's Note

My formatting sucks yes, but this is a poem I decided to do because I am shamed for being the way I am but I always move forward.
