Miss Unacceptable

Miss Unacceptable

“Because of insecurities she spent all of her money,
On lip fillers, hair extensions, facelifts and tucking her tummy,
All she ever wanted was to be cared for and loved,
All she ever got was to be beaten and shoved,
To the ground her head pointed, To the ground her eyes saw,
For her lips told such stories as if she was flawed.”

I found it so sad that someone should be made to feel worthless as the poor girl in your poem obviously was, Lucy.
We are ALL flawed creatures and not a one of us is perfect.
Low self-esteem coupled with a complete lack of confidence makes for a very sad existence.
My Grandma Cook always used to say that people should sweep the dirt off their own back porch before they go around pointing out how dirty everyone else's is.
Nice work!

Hello Lucy...

​​​Many people don't like something about themselves and they don't take the time to see what they do like about themselves to enhance that...

Some people don't like their nose but, they like their smile...

All they really focus on is their nose...

Everyone comes from an egg and a sperm...

To turn out with a head should be amazing enough...

Great write!

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...

Hi Tony!! It's the world we live in now I'm afraid. Too many social pressures, terrible messages we are giving to the new generations.  Thank you for being so supportive. I always appreciate your comments. xxxxxx
