Found Poem

I used the lyrics of Beyonce’s Flawless and Pretty Hurts:

 

I know little girls, pretty hurts

You dreamt of being flawless

If you're a pretty girl.

What's in your head  doesn't matter

Just Brush your hair and fix your teeth.

Perfection is a disease we teach girls

And we don't teach boys the same?

You're tryna fix something thats perfection

Vogue says, "Thinner is better."

So you woke up left a shattered mirror and the shards of a beautiful girl

You're tryna fix something perfection

But when you're alone

Are you happy with yourself?

No
