I asked you why you stared at me and you said
"Because you're beautiful."
You asked me why you wouldn't stare and I
didn't say a word.
I felt there was no need to- you already knew my point of view. My answer would've simply been
"Because I'm not."
And your eyes watered because you knew. I looked in your eyes- glistening with tears- and that's when I saw the most hideous thing I've ever seen in your eyes before-
My reflection-
And I buried my head in your shoulder and cried because I'm deathly afraid that one day you'll see me how I see myself-
Ugly.
