time to get ready
an be the perfect girl
why not
showcase "you"

or in that case
what you want other to think of "you"

perfect pushed up padded perfection
caked on makeup
aren't you delicious

an object to be devoured
by the male gaze

how else could anyone love "you"
want "you"
envy "You"

its they only thing that matters
when "you" do love yourself

because loving "you"
is impossible
who are "you"

A lost girl in a social media world
where images of "you"
are what the world values
"you" only amount to the number of likes on a facebook page

After all how else would "you" know
if it's okay to like "you"
