Young girl, beautiful girl
Why do you do what you do?
Why do you take those pictures
bent over just slightly to show your breasts,
showing your bikini body all over Facebook
using your "sexy" poses and "sexy" face
While your eyes look so sad, so uncertain?
What are you looking for?
The likes and comments pile up,
but do you feel beautiful now?
Young girl, beautiful girl
Why do you do what you do?
idolizing boys because they are pleasing to the eye?
What can they do?
Whether famous or up close
They aren't the answer to life's problems or questions.
They cannot fulfill you.
I know your heart yearns for love
to be cherished
told you are beautiful
desired
But taking boys into you heart again and again
is a bandaid on a deeper issue
Leaving you empty and wounded and hurting again
Young girl, beautiful girl
why do you doubt yourself so much?
The worries of insignificance
the struggles of worth
the heartache of shape
the hunger, the hurting, the tears
it's scary what you do, what others do
and what you do to become them.
Be wise my darling
There are some things that cannot be reclaimed
There are some battles that will never be over
There are some scars that don't disappear
not in this lifetime
Protect yourself
Know yourself
Know your value.
You are beautiful
You are significant
You don't need to do these things
I hope you learn, before you regret
