Emma, 14
Medium: Poem
From the Artist: I used this poem to describe what I and so many other people feel like when they don't like themselves. With our media there's pressure to be thin, pretty, and talented. We never feel as good as the celebrities. I wanted to portray in this poem that everybody feels that way, but nobodies perfect.
In my mind I can see
The girl that I would like to be
I've gotten to know her in my thoughts
she is perfect and I am not
She's pretty, smart, and always sweet
She plays sports and piano, she's so elite
It upsets me sometimes. I just don't understand.
Why can't I do everything as well as she can?
People say to be happy with just being you
but then the girl shows me everything I can't do.
It used to be that my world was so happy and warm
But this hatred has left me alone in a storm.
I'll never be good enough I say as my teardrops fall.
but suddenly I realize I can't have it all
Nobody's perfect, now isn't that true?
The things that you're good at is what makes you you.
Hey perfect girl now I know what to feel
I am a person and you are not real.
We have to accept ourselves even though it can be hard
Our imperfections are what makes us who we are
If we were all perfect we'd be the same as each other
What makes us perfect is being good at one thing or another
People are all different, some are short, some are tall.
So since we're all good at different things you aren't perfect at all.
I'm good at writing but I can't ride a bike.
My friend's just the opposite, no ones exactly alike.
So that girls not perfect after all and I am just right
Then the rain stops and my world fills with light
so next time you feel down and your world starts to get dim
just remember you're perfect outside and in.
