never good enough


too fat

too thin

too short

too tall.

 

symmetrical,

uneven.

 

long nose, 

small eyes.

 

hair

makeup

dates

clothes.

Oh!

society knows.

 

glasses,

false eyelashes.

 

trust

trust issues,

commitment

commitment issues,

beauty

body issues.

 

bigger - smaller

fatter - thinner

shorter - taller

tears dry.

 

beauty is you,

beauty is me.

 

calm down.
