Beauty

A nip, a cut and a tuck,

Should we really give a cluck.

Striving for the penultimate like,

They just want your head on a spike.

Trying hard for body perfection,

Still detesting your our own reflection.

You say it's what's inside that matters,

Yet your insides are in tatters.

Is mental health now so unimportant,

Without good looks, you feel so dormant.

If you could see your inner-self sallow,

You wouldn't need to be so shallow.

Just be you, who you truly are,

To shine the brightest by far.
