"An Easier Life."
Life would be easier
if I didn't despise myself,
if I didn't despise the gray eyes I see in the mirror every morning,
if I didn't despise my crooked teeth,
if I didn't despise my red cheeks,
if I didn't despise my crooked grin,
if I didn't despise my awkward body,
if I didn't hate my odd and loud laugh,
if I didn't despise my bodacious curves,
if I didn't despise my short stature,
if I didn't despise my useless talents.
Life would just be so much easier if I didn't despise every moment of my unfortunate existence.
