A wee story about a friend and her struggle.
I look good
But the truth is…
I’m maybe to thin
My tan like my hair colour is bottle born
My push up padded bra creates cleavage men are supposed to like
The extra high heels accentuate my calf muscles
And give me extra height
My makeup hides swollen eyes
Covers pale lips,
Colours white pasty cheeks
Tweezers daily plucking unsightly hair
The under arms, up my legs, through bikini line
The razor performs on command
What is this all for?
I’m tired!
Every day it’s the same routine.
Who am I doing this for?
Me! Men! A Man! Other women? Who?
Is it all necessary?
If so why? If not why not?
Why do I do it?
Do I care?
If I do, why do I?
If I don’t why do I do it?
Can I not just be me?
Yes! No!
I want to be me!!!
Take me as I am or don’t bother me.
