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
