I Wish Someone Would Have Told Me - A poem

Little girl...yes, you little girl...open your eyes.
Know that you are more than what's between your thighs.
Know that you are more than just your size.
See beyond the deception and the lies.
It can never be too late to realize
what you are worth in your own eyes.
Or be faced with your own surmise.
Self destruction is where we succeed without tries.
And, boy, how quickly time flies
As you deplete your esteem and swallow the lies
That were fed to you and were sweet like pies.
Yet, a bitter taste will soon arise
Stagnant; regardless of tries.
Creating a hole of magnitude size.
Feeling low with self each continuous buys.
This is where ego and spirit collide.
This is where ego and spirit must divide.
And I don't consider myself any type of guide but
Look in the mirror; that's all I'd advise.
