Drown With Me

I was just asked to really think about what I would want to do if today was the last day of my life. As if it were planned. And I’m confused now. Because I did not think about anything crazy or mischevious. I just thought. Fuck. I’d have to say goodbye to the wrong person. I don’t know. I feel sick because I thought of you first. And I really shouldn’t of thought of you first.

Society puts too much emphasis on physical beauty. And this, we all know. But when I tell a girl that she’s beautiful, and she laughs as if it’s a joke, I have to wonder. Or when I tell a boy that his smile is glorious, and the first thing to slip his mouth is “Kids used to make fun of my teeth, you know? I don’t like my smile much.” I can’t help but be concerned. Because I see myself in them. I don’t fully believe anyone who tells me I’m beautiful, immediately I search for an ulterior motive. And whenever I’m complimented, I remember each and every hateful word that once hung on my shoulders. It’s only when someone compliments something other than my physical beauty that I embrace it. So when I tell the boy that he is unimaginably intelligent, he blushes, and takes it bashfully. Society has put so much emphasis on physical beauty, that it has caused us to deny our own. Your physical beauty exists. And it is much more than what you have been trained to see.

And inside, she was a tornado of contradictions. She was happy, but she was sad. She was smart, but she was failing a few classes. She was nice, yet she had mood swings that left her cranky and mad. She was beautiful, but didn’t feel it. And she was strong, but sometimes felt weak, as she let the tears flow freely, and hoped for change.
I am not a fixer upper, I am who I am. I am damaged, but I am beautiful. I am fucking art and you do not have the paintbrush, I do. I fucking do.
