Looking in the mirror

Not pleased with what I see

A face too round

Hips too wide

Hair where it shouldn't be

Moving throughout the day

Stresses this too large body

Knees that grind

Ankles swell

And back pain with constancy

I am confused by

This image in front of me

I want to dance

To swim and play

But this shape is not free

Inside I am different

I run and jump with glee

My spirit sings

As mountains I climb

I want to move with beauty

But what is beauty

If not individuality

Inside and out

Unique I am

Crafted exquisitely
