Ageless

Tall and slim I'll never be,
Never willowy and wispy like a tree;
I'm doomed to average, woe is me,
No change of attitude can set me free.

This thing I'm unable to repress,
Though I have improved my hair and dress;
I'll stay this way with all its stress,
Remaining average in my agelessness.

Give me puberty or give me height,
I'll even take up the plastic surgery fight;
Whatever it takes to make it right,
Just give me liberty or give me hindsight!
