TOO BIG

mirror, mirror on the wall,

why cant i be thin and tall?

diets, purging, dumb ideas,

refuse to puke, get diarrhea.

puking, stupidity for skinny girls

well, why not give it a whirl?

i wont stoop down to their level

just so i will shrink and shrivel.

everyone is so perfect

at least they can see their necks.

they can eat so much and not gain a pound

i gain 30 easy starving and sitting around.

try excersize, i know that works,

take 2 years to fit back into that one shirt.

impress the guys, boost self-esteem

too bad i cannot self-redeem

i guess i'll just embrace my curves

even if i cant make a hot guys head turn.

maybe sexiness isnt all that great

you cant even finish whats on your plate.

actresses putting on extra pressure

to show us what our waists will never measure.

maybe i should let it go

its not all that i live for, you know.

if you learn one thing from what i say,

do things how you think they should be done, not their way.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

i wrote this for a few friends who felt really big in everything they wore. just a lil comfort poem if you're a big person too.
