I stare in the mirror,
Closely look at my figure

Pinching the skin around my belly,
Feels like a jelly

Moulding my skin into the ideal shape,
I am looking like a giant ape

I wish, I could look like him,
The boy in the magazine perfectly slim

I compare our teeth and hair,
Our skin and lips, no similarities that we share

With every look my self esteem decays,
Losing confidence, my smile fades

My flaws seem endless,
I quickly fall into state of sadness and stress

And put on a baggy sweatshirt,
Hiding my imperfect figure and made my mind divert

Pretending I don't care,
Letting fly my dreams in air

Slowly I begin to accept ME,
Now my mind was tension free

Tore that magazine page,
Accepted my true image

I am the only me, and that is the best part!!!
