Unrealistic Beauty Standards

Unrealistic Beauty Standards

1 min
178

My mother always said

Don't go here and there in the sunlight

Because I am dark

They don't know the colour and the look doesn't matter

But they always want to show standards.


Unrealistic beauty standards never matter

Life is unpredictable and nothing at all.

From face cream to wax for body hair removal

Nothing is important in life

Fat, thin, ugly and beautiful are just a thought

But nothing matters in reality

Keeping my body tone safe

And the complexion of my body

Never meet my goal

People always paint pictures of perfection

That I will see Only in my dreams

I want to hide behind the curtain of false perfection

Based on looks and shallowness

No one can grow this society

All are humans and all are God's child

Some are fair and some are dark but no one is wild

So don't embarrass me for my beauty standards.
