They Call Me Ugly

-


Oblong headed with a large face
I call it large, you call it fat
Treading the road with my designer bow legs

I hear the jeers and ew's
The signs of irritation glaringly written on thier faces
I almost believed I was a fiend
I almost lost sight of who I am
I've got brains but not your definition of beauty
No fake lashes or even plastic surgery
I appreciate beautiful folks but I believe all is vanity
It's not my fault you call me ugly
I didn't do anything to be the way I am
And so did your 'fine' people too
I'm beautiful on the inside
It's not my fault you just can't see

This is dedicated to all plus sized people in the world, even if they call you ugly, know that you're beautiful not just in their assessment of beauty.
Have a positive day.
Dieko.

Beautiful post! I think you are beautiful, its too bad society decides what is "beautiful". It is to bad that images reflect one type of person and exclude all other forms of beauty. Plus size, skinny, curvy, whatever, every single person is beautiful and true beautiful people can see that. Everyone else has superficial and confirmative opinions, those opinions do not matter.

great post! I think beauty ideals are changing every day, but this stigma still sticks. I think every person can be beautiful based on what's inside, not outside.

Beautifully written and to the point. You don't look ugly to me at all. True beauty really goes beyond what the eyes can see.

This is marvelous. What's most important is that you are able to love the skin you're in. To hell what other people think!

Hello Heaven

Hello Heaven, Heard you would be judging with how it ends Heard I would be a stranger to all my friends Heard the music would be alleluyah, hope there's highlife and not just the classicals Hope we can hip hop to the musicals Would the angels be on blue jeans, leather jackets or fancy kicks? Don't tell me it's only white robes. I'll be bored in less than a week. Sorry for all the questions, mean no I'll intentions. Would there be choir practice,I  hope heaven isn't all church service? Help me not to lose faith, Jesus leave the parables and talk straight... Written by Peter Nwanguma Have a Wonderful day ahead, Xoxo, Dieko.

You Lied

You lied I am not the kind given to mindless prattle Nor am I the kind to be swayed by the grace of your swaying lips Ever since I took to the fashion of judging mysteries with the guise of a wolf clan I have had for myself a vacuum long filled from it's doldrums I take your words for what they are, words! with the kindness and calm I can't but disdain each loose one I sacrifice at the altar of smouldering indifference For you lied to me,you told me I had too much to loose Grand papa says its always better to be left with the "oh wells than the what ifs" You lied,you said being self-centered is wrong I am the north star ,the nucleus of this journey breathing life&essence You lied, you said everything happens for a reason Not everything was a cosmic sign to begin with You lied ,you always do Written by Anjolaoluwa Jaiyeola Have a wonderful day, Xoxo Dieko
