Beautiful On The Inside Poem by Katinka Havermans

It is so sad
It's such a shame
You must not let yourself go

Look at your face
Look at those beautiful eyes
What do you do to yourself

What will they think
If they see you eat
If they see you standing there

You have such a beautiful head
You have such beautiful hair
Come on, do something about it

But mom I am pretty
Beautiful inside
Are you not seeing that tear

Stop whining
About my weight
I'm an emotional roller coaster

Live and let live
I know myself really
And I don't like that too

But I am beautiful, on the inside
And beautiful on the outside
Only you can't see that sometimes,
But I don't care anymore (hey, I'm 44!)
