What if,
The definition is different
For everyone

Sometimes I feel comfortable in my body,
and sometimes I feel like ripping off my skin.
At times I like what I see

Sometimes I feel like ripping off my hair
removing the fat with my bare hands.
But then I feel stupid for whining about
something so trivial.
because it's the inner beauty that counts
isn't it?
and after that I set off in another trail of despair
am I pretty enough within?

Impenetrable

Except you

I allow you in
Just so you
Can tear me apart
