She gets upset
Then she draws
With constant reminders of all her flaws

Feeling unloved
She keeps going
Trying to refrain her pain from showing

She continues trying
Sees how hard it is
Her body has now become her canvas

Under and over
Knowing what they each mean
Her drawings are hidden in places unseen
