More Than That

My body, my choice

But is it my choice what they think ?

It reflects on me like in the mirror

When I see me, I see no other

I want to be like the ones on tv

I want to have the XS body 

I want to measure at least one, seventy 

But I will never be, so will they accept me ? 

They say you should be the only one that matter 

But what should I do if I don't matter ? 

If I stay like me

They will forever see me as the funny buddy

I'm a punchline and a joke

I have dreams, they're often choked

By the expectations thrown my way

Will I ever find my own day?

To stand tall, and never be cowed

But the pressure to conform weighs heavy on my soul

They say you should be the only one that matter

But what should I do if I don't matter ?

If I stay like me

They will forever see me as the funny buddy

I'm more than that....
