Don't worry about your flaws and imperfections, says the poet, because these very imperfections make you what you are!
Don’t worry about your flaws and imperfections, says the poet, because these very imperfections make you what you are!
Sticks and stones have broken my bones But words have broken my heart When someone’s told me I’m not pretty It’s torn my world apart
We’ve looked at all those pretty girls On covers of magazines All we’ve said then is I wish I were as pretty, as lean
Am I really beautiful? Often we’ve asked ourselves We’ve let our minds deny it Without listening to what the heart tells
It says that beauty is acceptance Being comfortable in our own skin It isn’t measured by the makeup on our faces But by how radiant our hearts are within
Let people say what they want to We’re way above what they do I’m my own version of pretty You’re the best version of you
So lets join hands and hold our heads high And put on a strong front We’re pretty, we’re beautiful, we’re bold But the best thing is – we’re confident
Lets accept ourselves for what we are Our little flaws and imperfections Because these little things are what make us unique Make us see beauty in our reflections.
