Pretty hurts
In the eye of the beholder
Is how beauty should be measured
But 0-16 has taken over
The outside-only matters
Heels so high they touch heaven
Dresses so tight you cannot breathe
Skirts too short
Shirts too low to impress
Working out is a necessity
Diet Diet Diet
Eating sweets is the biggest crime
Pounds gone - but smiles too
Putting makeup on - is now a job
Always dressed for others will judge
“Be you, but act like this”
“Love yourself, but not too much”
