Prayer to Capri Sun
Staring into the shiny blue
The shiny blue enraptures me
Let it save me
Distract me
From the self-mutilation I impose upon myself
From the nightmares dancing above my head
With themes of hate
I wake up in a sweat
And tell myself it’s ok
Even if I’m not going to change it
Everywhere I go I criticize
I hate you because of your perfect smile, your perfect face
The perfect way you walk with grace
Why can’t I feel beautiful just by my natural way?
I need to be loved
Shiny blue, please help me
I’m lost in this never-ending cycle
Only my face is reflected off of your plastic-y surface
It makes me feel more alone
I don’t want to be alone
