Her Little Small Body 


The little small body 

That would not feel enough. 

Kids would call her names.


She never felt good about her body.

The way she would cry in her room 

was like it was raining cats and dogs.


Parents never knew that she would 

cry like a thunder storm.

Parents thought she was happy 

about her body.


Her three friends knew that she 

was strogaling with her body. 

But as she gets older her body 

starts to change but she still wasn’t happy.


Her aunt would call her names. 

She felt so belittling as the words hit her. 

She would go to try to workout but it still would not work.
