The Prettiest Ugly

Surrounded by things
That I shouldn’t see.
Because if I do
Then I’ll know I’m ugly.

Prettier than me,
Skinnier too.
Starving isn’t for depression;
I’m just feeling blue.

No matter how hard I try
I feel way too fat.
And my face, my poor face,
It needs a good zip zap.

Trying to scrub away
Who I once was.
Hair tied up a different way,
Turning claws into paws.

Though I may stay the same
At least I try hard.
So, in a way
I’ve covered up some parts that are scarred.
And in a way, I also am
The prettiest ugly, I’m almost avant-garde.
