Absent or Distant
March 14, 2019
Is it sunny?
All I see are clouds
I don't understand how people
can look pretty,
cry pretty,
wear pretty clothes,
breathe...
I don't understand why...
I don't understand
Why can't anyone love me?
I don't feel pretty in a dress or in makeup.
should that make me feel ugly?
I don't know
because I cry over it.
I want to be loved
Why can't I love myself
I just don't understand
I wear sweets and I still feel ugly
I'm no ordinary girl. I just sit; fake a smile and just see clouds
even when it's sunny
