The fat girl glares in envy
At the one the world calls skinny
And the skinny girl glares back
At the one the world calls fat

Fatty wants the slender neck
Skinny wants the breasts
Fatty wants the tiny tummy
Skinny wants the rest

Fatty wants the tiny waist
Fatty wants to breathe
Fatty wants to be the one
The world would call pretty

But there are secrets
That fatty doesn't know
Like the dreams of skinny
And why she feels so low

Skinny may be small
But she wants to gain some weight
So don't call a small girl skinny
It's sometimes a very big mistake

Fat girls may look to skinny
And release an angry sigh
But tiny girls who can't gain weight
Can kiss an ass goodbye

So the next time you look in a mirror
And start to curse your flaws
Remember there are girls in this world
That look to you in awe

We can't always be what we want to be
We can't always look the same
Feelings are so much more important
So don't call each other names

Appearances don't last forever
But scars always remain
So hug your body close
Because it's beautiful all the same

All the cellulite in the world
And all the bones showing through skin
Shouldn't stop the smiles
That would have, could have been.

I know the rhyming is a little childish, but I am trying to get a major idea across here. I am so tired of girls envying one another for the difference in their bodies. I am also guilty of it, but women, especially, should be thankful for their bodies. We are all beautiful. There is no shame in eating healthy and working off some extra weight or gaining some if it makes you feel better, but for god sakes, don't torture yourself over it. Whether you are fat, skinny, or flat out average... you are beautiful all the same.

And everything I've ever been
Gets lost when you get within
You're everything I ever wanted to be
Because you take what's inside of me.

God, I love this, the message is powerful. :0 I look at some art and it's like "Skinny girl's suck" and it kinda bothers me. I can't really help it if I'm skinny, and I don't really mind how anyone else looks, you know? Yeah, I have more to say, but I'm feeling rather retarded at the moment. :) This was really good, anyway, and I couldn't agree more. <3

I do believe in faeries!

I'm not racist, just anti-stupid.

I'm one of those people who wishes she had a cool sig. :\

Thank you for the comment and the fav ^_^ I've never been able to help my weight. I've never been over 105 lbs. Now, I'm at a steady 92 ^^;; Like you say though, we can't help it. And we should never envy each other over what our bodies look like. Encourage, yes. But everyone is beautiful in their own unique way, and someone in the world is always crazy about them ^_^ Hope you have a great day.

Thank you very much ^_^ Yes, I want more people to hear this message. It may not be the best writing in the world, but it gets the general point across, I think ^_^;

Thank you very much! I hope everyone realizes the meaning of this, rather they read it or not. Not everyone will be able to read it, so make sure you spread the meaning of it, k? ^_^ God bless.
