for those who have grown with me
or watched me grow up, i have
always been the same girl. more
mature, maybe. more wise. but my
core has stayed the same. the
funky spun in my step is still
there like it was from my
childhood years. my outright
bluntness from my first sentence
in meeting someone. last,, the
choice to be different. yeah,
sometimes i think to myself,
‘maybe i should be like all
you out there. start dying my
hair, waking up to straighten it
everyday. pounds of make-up,
looking sexy 24/7.’ but,
nah; i’ll stick to what
i’ve got. yes, you
‘super hot’ girls
make me feel pretty plain jane
sometimes, but for those who are
understanding me right now,
i’m better than you,
because under all that make-up,
who’s gonna want you now
that everyone is so used to
seeing you glammed up like a
doll? do you have as much as
ambition and drive as i do under
all that make-up?
