What Is Beauty
There are ways to distort an image,
 But you wouldn’t think you could use your words.
 Your first thought is Photoshop or a software
 But you wouldn’t think about yourself.
 Models aren’t real women
 You try to empower the majority, but
 Meanwhile
 You tear down the minority.
 What is unreal?
 The body? With feelings and a heart?
 With a passion?
 It truly is unfair
 To make a big deal about one person’s perception
 While disregarding another’s.
 To make a big deal about body image
 and how everyone is beautiful
 By telling those who look different,
 Like women in magazines
 That they are not.
