She’s so perfect
Looking down on you
She’s so perfect
It’s all she’s to do

Perfect hair and
A perfect smile
Perfect eyes and
A perfect style

She makes you want
She makes you need
To change your life
To change yourself

Slowly start to purge yourself
Change your hair and
Change your clothes
Exploring things your don’t really know

She’s so perfect
Looking down on you
She’s so perfect
It’s what they do

Perfect colour and
A perfect job
Perfect lenses and
Perfect clothes

All you want
All you need
Change your life
Change yourself

Quickly see the weight disappear
Changed your hair
Changed your clothes
Doing things you haven’t before

You’re so perfect
Look at yourself now
You’re so perfect
Look what you do

Perfect hair and
A perfect smile
Perfect eyes and
A perfect style

What you want
What you need
Changed your life
Changed yourself

Thin and sweet
Hair silky straight and neat
Clothed in style
Not waking up a while…

You’re so perfect
Dreading yourself now
You’re so perfect
Go and starve now

Crappie hair and
A broken smile
Normal eyes and
A worn out style

All you want
All you need
To change your life
To change yourself

Eat back all you’ve lost
Change your hair and
Change your clothes
Go back to how it was

She’s so fake
Looking up at you
She’s so fake
Staring right at you

Made up hair
Digital smile
Contact eyes and
A paid for style

She makes you want
She makes you need
To keep your life
Just the way you please

Eating what you usually do
Do your hair just the way you do
Use your clothes in front of you
Keep doing what you love to do

Don’t listen to the magazine
Don’t fall just to be seen
Open your eyes look at you
You’re beautiful
We always knew

Love yourself
Treat you well
Keep on going
It’s just as well
Cause it is us who can tell

Don’t change for them
Don’t get sucked in
We love you because it’s who you are
Stay here with us
Don’t leave again please
Or we will miss you.

well i dont know if philosophical was the right choice of section... correct me if im wrong please *hint hint burn poetry peoples* anyhow, my inspiration lvls av been 0 for a long while now, cept the other day was in bros car on way sumwhere n was jus listening to a song n i just developed an idea from a few words of that song n ended up with this. was also listening to Live forever by Oasis while writing this which may have altered how i wrote it, if i wrote it that day id probably be more happy with it but o well. i think its basically self explanitory.

EDIT:
Ok well there seems to be some confusion with ppl bout what this is about and is confusing others to think the same >< so im resubmitting and jus doing an extended description. Ok um… this is in 5 parts, like 5 stages, each part has 4 stanzas and it repeats but changes. At first its referring to a picture of a girl in a magazine and how shes so perfect in the way she looks etc… and now there is a girl who is looking at this picture and then as each stage happens she starts to change herself so she can be more like this picture and how the media pressures sum ppl to be like, then towards the last stages she starts feeling crap and it is ruining her life and then at the end she changes back to who she originally was and then at the very end her friends r giving her advice telling her not to do what other ppl tell her to do n don’t change yourself just to be popular with others just be yourself cuz that’s the person they know and love and it is who u r.

Ok well yeh hope that clears things up for ppl. This unlike rest of my poetry isn’t personal or directed at anyone or based on anyone its just a general thing that a lot of young girls seem to be subjected to in this world and its wrong.

Well thats better :) i did get the right idea about it but not to that detail i sorta got the scenario wrong in my head but yeah already explained that to you so i did have the right idea just thought it was more of a 'popular girl' thing than magazine thing but it made more sense that way and its just as valid. Tis a sad fact of life that children are caring about their appearance at too early an age and thus losing their childhood which is a horrible thing to happen because its so important. Ah well the media will kill us all one day! Mark my words!

I think i shall now fav this

lol, mm the media may proovoke it but really we are killing ourselfs. n yeh its such a shame the pressure and everything put on kids now to b smarter and look better n all the advertising, they dont care who they hurt as long as they get a story and as long as they get money. but it wont change so kids just havto learn whats right. most learn the hard way unfortunatly.

thx for fave =)

It kinda sucks when you have to be all point blank, and in your face, and "Fuck you, mother fucker, this is what it means!" at people for them to get it. :P

Again...Great work!!! :D

I'm not a hero, and i'm not a rolemodel. I'm someone that would rather hit a bong than a bottle, and throttle my brain into a mundane state, and maybe eat some shrooms so i hallucinate.

It's a sad society we've created. Unfortunately seems to continually be spiralling toward.
Nicely expressed. :aww:
