She's Perfect

Her perfect smile
Her perfect face
Those perfect legs
That perfect waist
That perfect dress
White like a dove
The way it fits her
As a glove
Her perfect gardes
Her perfect charm
Her perfect shape
That hides her harm
Those perfect shoes
On feet so small
They build her up
Make her seem tall
Her perfect eyes
Her perfect tastes
Those perfect nails
She's full of grace
But little did they know
That she's been trying to hide
A scared little girl
Who's dying inside
And they don't know
No, they won't guess
She starved herself
To fit that dress

When I was very, very young (probably around 4 years old) my mom actually considered entering me in some beauty contests/ pageants. One day she went to one and saw all those poor little girls being told that no, they couldn't just go home and play, they had to earn it or that this is what you have to do in order to be pretty. That was the end of that. Could you imagine? I could've ended up like the girl in your poem.
Your poem reminded me of that. Thanks for sharing. You've got a wonderful way with words.
Lots of love and peace be with you,
Chelsea |

i've only been a member of this site for about a month, but i have found so many poems that i want to share with others because i think they are so impacting, and are a true insight into a range of different life experiences. This poem is one of them.
Reading your words I understand this girl's desperation about being seen but not really being seen....she's hiding her pain as best she can but wanting people to see thru her facade....
a great write. |
