for nine months i carried you watched by belly swell as you grew inside me even if you don't grow up believing in magic you find yourself gasping in awe at the whole process all those changes other people ask "how far along" and "do you have a name yet" and then the day comes and it hurts oh god, does it hurt but the pain is worth the prize nine months later go to the beach i see the girls i used to be strutting around wearing next to nothing i see the women i am now beautiful bodies hidden under lands end tankinis feeling caught in the middle it's up to me to show them we can reclaim our pasts rise up, ladies rise up, mothers those aren't stretchmarks they're racing stripes |

Nice slam down. I wrote one on bullying the other day: The flaws are in perspective It's fairly simple to see If you close your eyes and focus You're just as flawless as me Nobody's perfect, like Hannah Montana said, When it comes to the point of who you can be But it's hard to look past the beauty in the red Especially who distracts from the light shining on me The flaws are never there, and they never will be Just focus on the beauty thats different in you and me |
