“you look so nice! ” they were saying, <br />i felt they were not seeing, <br />“it showed like i was expecting! ” <br />with stupid, confused thoughts, <br />i wore the dress, only sickness it brought, <br />“may be i don't see what they could” <br />“may be i don't realize... i look like they could” <br />with my head flying high and nose in the air, <br />i walked like i didn't care, <br />my pointed heels gave them scare. <br /> <br />oops it's me! , <br />and like them i could be, <br />standing tall without a clue, <br />gonna fall, wearing the color blue, <br />happily i danced, tipsy as they tranced, <br />call the dj and give me a chance...... <br /> <br />My straight hair falling on my face, <br />with utmost contempt i took part in the race, <br />i am going to be joining the club, <br />“never was i fat” my habits i curb. <br /> <br />Reality came back with a blow, <br />saw my pictures, <br />like a big bag of snow, <br />“did i eat too much? ” <br />“do i think too much? ” <br />“did i not listen when was teased! ” <br />“did i not exercise and calories released? ” <br />why did i not wear? , <br />a dress to avoid the glare? , <br />can i not go back and stop the stare? <br />Finally it dawned on an intelligent mind, <br />my eating habits i must rebind, <br />can not hold a grudge, <br />because “you are your best judge”.<br /><br />rinki nandy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-are-your-best-judge/
