It must be hard to be beautiful.

Little girls growing up
Thinking they need to get the wing
On their eyeliner
Just right,
Or they will be judged.

A boy has to have abs,
Or girls won’t notice them.

It must be hard to be beautiful.

I find beauty in the weird,
The strange,
And the unwelcomed.

I find perfection in the flawed
And in a dark sense of humor.

It must be hard to be beautiful.
