Weighing On My Mind

For my lady Kayleigh who is perfect the way she is.

 

I just don’t get it,

I just don’t understand,

Why they would want you

Skinny as a stick

When you're perfectly beautiful

Just the way you are.

What they might think

Is a fat butt

I believe is the sexiest a*s

I have ever seen.

If they think you need

To lose weight

I’d have to say
I think they all lost weight

When they lost their minds.

They believe you to be too big

While I see your curves

As something a goddess

Would be jealous of,

Your naked form

Is my ultimate aphrodisiac.

They heavy your burden

By pushing you to lose some pounds,

I just hope I can

Lighten your load

When I tell you,

“I’d love when you wrap me up

in your voluptuous body.”

I like this piece and I am with you in your views. At the same time, this piece reminds me of that body image controversy that will not go away. I am sick of hearing about it, first they shame fat people and now skinny people. What next, you gonna shame people that are in the middle?

Sorry for the rant, but like I said, I am with you on this piece.

Don't be sorry for the rant, I agree with what you said too.

Ohh yea... this is too good to be true :) All women have insecurities with their figure.Me?? I dance as a madgirl daily,i am on an oil free diet.But guess what?? I would really wish someone to say- ohh baby,i love you the way you are,turn that damn music off and kiss me".. :) Lady Kaleigh isa lucky girl to have you.. Confidence is what makes a girl sexy,men die for curves ;)I loved this writing Dale.

Thank you for sharing your story and showing that it happens all the time to women. I blame it all of the media for girls starving themselves.

[Sophy Freebirds]

[Sophy Freebirds]

so good so good..

I am reminded of the poem Barbie Doll...oh perfection is not so hot...real is sexy...

and voluptuous is a very good thing...very good thing.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

It is very good thing in deed sir… thank you.

I want to go back in time to when women like Marilyn Monroe an Betty Paige were sexy symbols.

[David Scott]

Is this to your wife?
Sexy is a mindset not physical presentation. Healthy bodies are important and make for happy comfortable lives. But healthy has many sizes and shapes.
This is a great affirmation of the goddess beauty we are gifted to enjoy if we will only accept it.
Tender and loving.

No to my girlfriend… thank you so much for the uplifting response to my poem.

[Rita L. Sev]

People can be so ignorant. This is a beautiful piece, Dale - truly loving sentiments! (cue Bruno Mars... ) ;)

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you so very much Rita, appreciate the delightful review.

[Kayleigh]

Be still my beating heart, honey this brought tears to my eyes.... Goodness I am speechless and completely stunned. You know that this is a daily struggle for me but with you, convincing me otherwise helps me more than you'll ever know you truly are wonderful and I don't think I'll be able to stop crying happy tears for the rest of the night. I can always count on you babe, thank you for this hunni bun. I love you so much.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Hey I just speak the truth, I am glad that it helps you hon cause you are great the way you are. I am lucky to have your heart.

Oh Dale, I can so relate to this right now. People putting us down because we aren't the size of models, I swear, it hurts tremendously and affects us as a person. I am loving your attitude and hope that somehow, when this is read by others, your attitude has morphed and became there's too. I am sure Kayleigh will love this when she reads it - if you haven't already read it to her and I know it'll touch her heart more than she will ever be able to say.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Oh Sye, I am sorry to hear you go through this too… I know how it effects my girlfriend even though I assure her how sexy she is… those negative thoughts are sometimes easier to believe for people… I hope thing get better for you on this matter. Never change for anyone.

[Jennie Baron]

Very nice, Dale! You have exactly the right attitude.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you Jennie, I just wish I could spread that attitude around to the ignorant.
