They tell you that you are beautiful, for a day. Would they still think you were beautiful if they knew you wished your life away. Waking up everyday doubting yourself. "I hate myself.." "But you have so much worth" If only you knew.. The constant struggle of being insecure. The struggle of being a girl.. Lower classmen "EQUALS" **** and abuse. All of that means nothing to you. Wake up in my flesh and see if you can last the day. Walking astray the men watch you.. Stalk you like prey. But everything is supposed to be okay? "You are beautiful. You have worth" Clearly beautiful with a ripped shirt covered in dirt. Brush it off. Wipe a smile on your face. Trying to please the standard. Learning one's place. Get over yourself. You simply don't understand. Constantly being hurt. Insecurity driving you deeper in the ground. Absence of sound. Lacking confidence due to negligence So much worth.. If I have so much worth why is there this much hurt? Why am I pushed into dirt and expected to act as if everything is okay? I'm just "beautiful" to you. Not seeing me any other way. My own being as if that mattered anyway. I smile as I feel my inner self fade away.
