Why Me?

This is about a girl who is going through bodyshaming

When J. Bieber sang,
"Picture perfect you don't need no filters"
I don't think he was singing to me.
I can't post my selfie
People will start drawing on my forehead
Play "Join the dots" with the spots on my face
Or say how my nose can blow out a fire
Or how I can see the future with my eyes
Or how my lips are half my face
I can't wear a cute dress and sandals in public
Soon I'll be known as the knock-knees girl
No matter how much makeup I apply
On my toes and fingers
Same same disturbing comments I'll receive
Why do I have to go through this?
I didn't choose this body
Believe me, if I had a say, I'd be the Miss World
They say there's beauty in imperfections
Mine are so many, ugliness manifests instead
I can't afford plastic surgery
I'll have to live with this shame-bearing body
I'm only human after all
Just as you and everyone else
I deserve to be treated as such
Overlook my irreversible flaws
And live a life of happiness and joy
Lest I fall into depression
And slide all the way into the suicide pool.
