I posted this a long time ago but I thought I'd share it again. Do I have A Choice? It's hard. Waking up putting on a mask only to discard. Is it worth it? Revealing clothing and bras that don't fit. Do I have a choice? Changing myself to impress the boys? It doesn't feel like it. They say beauty is pain but even when I take the mask off the pain still won't go away. They say to be confident, then point out all of your flaws. I don't even know myself anymore. Not a little, not a bit, not even at all. They tell me to do or say things that I normally wouldn't. I do things to fit in even though I know I shouldn't. “But it takes the pain away” No it doesn't. Because when I see my reflection it still feels like I'm missing something.
I just found this again loll
wow i can say this poem resonates with me like you nailed the feeling of pressure to fit in and the struggle of self image. the mask imagery is powerful. i think a lot of people can relate to this and it is tough to feel like your losing yourself but yeah i like it i will give it a 8.5/10
