Peacock

Dang! I had a whole notebook dedicated to awful poetry. Some of it has dates, some of them have titles, some aren't half bad. I'll post some of the not-so-cringe-worthy poems. Like this one:

You're so beautiful
In the mirror, in the streets
From your gorgeous head
to your perfect feet
yet, you're never good enough
and you go through so much pain
to be the perfect beauty
but you're never you again

The mirror lies
the powders conceal
a beautiful mask
and the sadness you feel
but you're the only one
who sees the ugliness inside
so you drive yourself insane
trying so hard to hide
