Permanently placed Heavily covered in lace. Encased Full of determination Yet the lack of representation. No sense of protection High expectations That lead to Constant self evaluation And even when you're good enough If not better than You still never are to them They treat you as an object You're not yet But you might as well be A wax figurine.

A woman’s world
Permanently placed Heavily covered in lace. Encased Full of determination Yet the lack of representation. No sense of protection High expectations That lead to Constant self evaluation And even when you're good enough If not better than You still never are to them They treat you as an object You're not yet But you might as well be A wax figurine.
