Jealousy
October 27, 2023
Yes, I know she's prettier
Of course, she looks sweet
Her body is small and skinnier
Her hair is perfect cut and neat
Maybe if I wore more makeup
Maybe if I wore a dress
If I wasn't always judged
Would she look comparable any less?
My eating, I could reduce
It wouldn't hurt me
Girl standards I could induce
Then who would I be?
I line my eyes with shadows
Cut my hair punk-rock
Sunk myself in the shallows
Gave up to the shock
I know it don't matter, but then why does this jealousy
No matter how I ignore it, just get to me?
