Real woman, that I am!



I am a real woman,
I have flab on my belly,
bossom not so shapely;
Coz, it's not who I am !

I love my curves,
I don't eat herbs.
I have carried a baby
In my womb, on my body.

I have played as a kid,
still play with my kid.
My body surely shows that,
all the fun and the skid...

I am a real woman,
While rearing a sweet family
pampering thy doesn't come easily.
And I bother not, that's not I am.

If you want polished skin,
shapely body & a fake grin,
it's not to be me!
I'm real, with a natural shin.

I have my bout of mood swing,
I can't be sweet for everything.
I laugh, I cry, so may shout,
I do moan, with my heart out.

I am a real woman,
I love myself, for how it is.
Without a bitsy of fake
Up to you to not or to take. .

I can give you all I have,
I care not what you give
Just love me the way I am,
Coz,  I am a real woman.

About this poem

May have been inspired to write this after reading/watching some 'be beautiful to be loved/admired/etc.' kind of contents. The idea of beauty varies for me though..
