Horrified at what I see
Ugliness from the waist up
I want to be skinny
Beautiful
With curves
A small sexy waist
Instead I see
Ugliness
It pains me to look at myself
Horrific
I want to be that girl on the cover of a magazine
Perfect with crystal clear features
It won't happen
It makes me depressed
I want to die at some points
People are so judgemental
I look at the broken glass mirror
I am fading quick
Then I am gone

Skinny is not necessarily beautiful.

There is nothing wrong with you as you are. There is beauty in every one of us. Inside, or out, and looks are not what make a person beautiful.

Please, do not put yourself down.
People are judgemental, but the people that matter? No. If they judge you, they are not good enough for you..

I know these feelings, I can relate to this, as I have been there.

But being big, is not being wrong...

Be strong.

Something most people probably don't know about those models on magazine covers; editors take parts from different girls and basically cut and paste to make the "perfect" woman.
You aren't always looking at just one girl, and even when you are, a lot of airbrushing goes into making them beautiful.
Far too many people feel the way you do for reasons that are unexceptable. God gave you the body you own for a reason. It has a purpose and you wouldn't be able to fill that purpose if you looked any other way.

God Bless,
Lizzie

i agree with the last few comments..most people on the magazines have eating dissorders and are basiclly fake for how much surgery they get and thats not beautiful... if people cant see that you are beautiful for who you are then they are the ugly ones!!!

no one has the right to judge someone for the way they look. its the personality that makes someone beautiful, and if people can't, or don't take the time to really see that, then they are just a waste of time. its not you who is ugly, its those who are so conceided that they only reflect upon themselves, and others in that "League".
congratulations on the lovely write,

Exquisite writing that is your gift, be blessed for you are perfection.
