You're Normal
Location
Every morning she wake up
wash her face
paint on her socially acceptable face and pretends
pretends of being something she is not
"WOW SHE HAS EVERYTHING"
"OH MY GOD SHE'S SO PERFECT"
"I WISH I WAS HER"
"SHE MUST BE THE HAPPIEST GIRL IN THE WORLD"
Perfect?
Far from
Happiest?
Ask her why she takes her Prozac and Xanax
Ask her where she goes when she says she is going to her friends
But never ask if she is okay
For if you ask if she is okay you will have shows sympathy for someone other than yourself
Lets play pretend
"THOU SHALL NOT JUDGE"
"AMERICAN THE FREE"
"UNIQUE IS BEAUTIFUL"
They say true beauty is within
But they have not seem within her soul
Her soul and mind filled with voices and thoughts she cannot escape

embrace your flaws they say
If flaws are to be admired why are there thousands of beauty products to correct our flaws
Society has deemed women to spend their entire lives trying to perfect the cookie cutter image of beauty
She doesn't stay over for dinner because she says she has cheerleading practice
She stopped cheering three years ago
The fear of food
The fear of gaining weight
The fear of having curves and having to buy clothing to fit her newly filled body
"A BOY WILL NOT LOVE A FAT GIRL"
She skipped her best friends sweet 16 because she was scared to show her skin
One day she decides she is tired of the stigma society has on women
She voices her opinion but no one listens
"YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE DEPRESSED"
"HOW WOULD YOU KNOW THE PRESSURE OF BEING PERFECT?"
"BUT YOU HAVE NOTHING TO BE DEPRESSED ABOUT"
