Nothing Gold Can Stay

Perfect adj. per·fect ˈpər-fikt : having all the qualities you want in that kind of person, situation etc.

Is this what perfect looks like?

Skinny legs, bigger breasts

Is all they want to see.

Flawless skin, tiny waist

The opposite of me.

Beautiful is thin

And if I starve myself,

Beauty is what I win.

People said, beauty is about the size

Of your breast, the color of your skin,

The flatness of one's stomach,

In weight and clothing size.

To me, there's only one beauty.

The one wherein you're contented

Where you learn to accept and love

Your own beautiful you.

Imperfections, mistakes, flaws and all.

The beauty that really matters

Lies in our hearts, our core.

Cleansed by good conscience.

Because when you love what's in your inside;

You yourself will love what's outside even more.
