five years after
going cold turkey on kajal
because it made you look different to others
than what you think you really look like
now,
when you put on dark brown liquid lipstick
starting from your near perfect cupid's bow
and finishing with your glorious lower lip
and draw symmetrical, sharp wings
like acrylic on canvas
and choose to look like that
for yourself
i am grateful
because i grow
when you grow
