little girl,
I saw you staring at the mirror
with a look of scorn.
I saw you studying the other girls
with envy.
I saw the world pulling at you,
pounding into your head
what you are not,
what you should become.
I saw the tearful nights
and I tried to tell you
you were beautiful,
perfect, just the way you are.
but you drowned My voice
with theirs.

    1. Hey, Hermina! I don't really do follow backs because most of the time I only read blogs that have the same content that I do. Besides, I don't think blogging is about gaining a number of followers just for the sake of it. Haha :P I'm so sorry! I hope you understand!
