"tell me life is beautiful"

[greenberryblues]

remember when i was young

and cute

and thin

and all the boys wanted to know me?

i thought it was because of *ME*

now i'm grown

and plain

and overweight

and it turns out nobody wants to know me anymore.

they want the next young, cute, skinny girl

as opposed to this overgrown opinionated woman.

...

which is funny because i love me more now than i ever did back then.
