Being A Woman Poem by Sarah Jay

'Work for perfect skin
Make your eyes look big
You ankles have to be thin
Your lashes long and thick

Do not forget make-up
-certainly not too much
Wear a bra (push-up)
Why not plastic surgery?

Your hips must be curved
But your stomach flat
Your long hair must be curled
'OH MY GOD, there is fat! '

Wear heels for long legs
Oh, your feet hurt?
Let me tell you:
Beauty knows no pain! '

No woman in front of a mirror
Will not find at least one mistake.
No woman in front of a mirror
Can say: 'I'm beautiful, for God's sake'

Ladies, what do we do all that stuff for?
- Men, certainly.
I ask you, are they worth it?
Most of the time: No.

So girls, let me tell you this:
Don't live for somebody else.
You can only be loved
When YOU love yourself!

Don't look perfect for a guy
But for yourself.
Because who does not value your inside
Is not worth your looks.
