The BBW

What a strange term that is,

BBW; what could it mean,

Some people don’t know,

They may think it obscene,

What are these abbreviations?

Some kind of magic,

Or heavens creations?

I think I know what they are,

And I would like to pass it on,

So here’s just a thought,

To say before your gone,

These people are big,

Beautiful too,

If your with one,

How I do envy you,

Just to feel one in your arms,

Is to know heaven above,

And to be with one,

Is to know true love,

They are smart; they are sexy,

But yet so demure,

To be smitten with them,

Is no disease no cure,

So if you want a real woman,

You know what to do,

Forget the waifs,

And get a BBW.

Being me

They say I should not be proud to be me,

But when they look that’s not what they see,

They don’t see past the fat,

They don’t see this cool and crazy cat,

I should try to lose weight,

They think that would be great,

They just can’t seem to see,

That with myself I’m hap-py,

Maybe I should change the way I live,

But who’s opinion did I ask to give,

I am happy where is the harm,

Leave me in my life perfectly calm,

There are things in life we all fix in our head,

Mine is those who answer a question I never said!

I know that face your making I see it all the time

The one that says ‘shit look at you, how’d you get to be that size?’

Look again take, your blinkers off

You may see something that you like

Do you see me now the real me now the one who lives inside?

Look deeper, try to see behind this flesh façade

Its difficult I know it is

The others tried and failed

I see it now a real smile now

You’re genuine and true

It’s a smile that lights your whole face up

It looks really good on you

See we’re laughing now and joking now

You’re not scared of me anymore

I’m relaxed and you’re relaxed

A good time had by all

The shallow people never know the truth I hide inside

Its hidden deep in all of us

It’s there for us to find

All you need is to believe there’s something more than size

Cause the only thing I care about

Is the real you not the shell

And now you’ve looked inside of me

You know the truth aswell

So I’m fat!

When you look at me, What do you see?
A monster...Is that what you think of me?
But your words do hurt,
And if you cut me i do bleed,

Hate the laughter, the echos, the tears that fall,
But hate the sorrow filled glances most of all,

I'm no diffrent to you,
Look closer you will see,
A girl whos clever and funny
Who jokes and smiles a lot,
Who's content with what shes got,
Not an outcast, Not a freak,

But you just carnt see...
well anyway i'm quite happy just being me.
