Not enough blush.
Acne everywhere,
It's a mush.
"Beauty spot?"
It's a mole at the wrong place
My face would've been better off
Without it's perpetual trace.

Neck too long
Collarbone too prominent
Waist not curvy enough
Hands too thin

Lips too puffy
And oh, that asymmetric bum.

Legs too hairy,
Everyone "nose"

Tears apart my vulnerable façade,
Yet somehow
It prompts me to cover my scars.
