Thorny Poetry - 10. Pretty

‘you’re pretty,’

you say

and i cringe

 

pretty

has never been me, never

felt like my skin, i never

wanted to be

pretty

 

and now, much less than before

 

pretty

makes me feel feminine

pretty

makes me feel small

 

i’ll be anything you want

call me what you like

uncomfortable as I find compliments

on my physical appearance,

call me hot, beautiful, stunning, if you have to

 

but don’t call me pretty

pretty please

 i understand it in my own way, i would not want to be called pretty either.  You are not wanting to be seen that way right now, or maybe never again,  so i get it.

 

I’m not really comfortable with compliments on my appearance at the best of times. I’ve tried to tell him that before... but I don’t think he gets it. I get taken off guard when it just comes out of nowhere like that. But pretty is particularly unpleasant at the moment. Told him so last night. Complimenting me makes him happy, so...
