Hello,
I’m me.

 

I have a large, oval face
with pimples
that look like bright red pepperoni
I would actually peel and eat one if I could!

 

I have black soulless eyes
that seem to be
carrying around sadness
ALL THE TIME.
No wonder my eye circles are so dark.
I look like a Panda!

 

My body looks like
a denatured hourglass
and my legs
well.
let’s just not talk about them

 

Oh! And not to mention
the pudgy fingers
sticking out of my spherical palms.
On both arms.
Ugh.

 

I am so messed up,
and definitely needing a diet
or maybe even more than that.

 

Now that you know me,
as according to you,
I guess…

 

you wouldn't want to know
everything hidden under that
those soulless eyes.
the pretty pink wonders
hidden under all that.
The pretty butterflies that fly
beautifully in my mind and heart
The birds that soar
through my lungs
The crystals that make
my eyes gleam when I’m excited.

 

Of course,
you don’t want to know that
especially when I look like… this.

 

 

I hate people like you.
Those who demand
The barbie doll out of me.
Just so you know.
