“STRETCHMARKED.”

It doesn’t matter if you are XL, or XS.
It doesn’t matter if you have melanin in excess.
It doesn’t matter, because you are a human
And if it does, so inhuman!

We’ve been taught to differentiate between shapes, sizes and colours;
To know the difference in primary grades, between fairer and duller
But if you discriminate and divide
You disrespect the creator’s choice worldwide.

Everyone is in a different home of skin and shape
And all of them despite of the colour and size get raped.
In between the thoughts of this man-made definition of a perfect body blaming,
Say a big no to body shaming.
