A poem.....by me


Ahem

Ode to the scale

Ode to the scale

Oh the power I have given you throughout all these years
The power to make me happy
The power to bring on tears
I have let my self esteem rest in what you say
I have lived through what your numbers say
Each and every day
I have measured my own worth
On a numbers and some metal
Never knowing that your calculations
Could be so detremental
Although you measure what I weigh
It has taken me time to learn
That those are only numbers
And that’s not a concern
What matters is how I feel
It's not about my weight
It's time I forget about numbers
Before it gets too late
My soul and personality
They don't weigh a thing
And that just goes to prove
That weight is NOT everything


By the way...I hate the scale...can you tell???
