Poetry: “Insecurities”

Saniya Tune | On 09, Dec 2018

Stomach too big so you get a tummy tuck

Hair too short so you get extensions

Breasts too saggy so you get a breast lift

Face too fat so you get Botox

Making enhancements to God’s perfection is an insult

You want to be someone God didn’t want

God doesn’t make mistakes so who you are is who he wants

Don’t change who you are to fit into this cruel cold world where people

will still pucker up their lips to say things that they shouldn’t but they do

and sadly they don’t think twice about it but yet they say what they say

and don’t care

But yet you’re supposed to live with short hair, a big stomach, saggy breasts,

and a fat face.
