Please don't call me cute, pretty, beautiful, or gorgeous..

I know I'm not as ugly as I think I am, but ugly is safe.

Don't worry I'll explain..

The world takes cute things and twists them until they are corrupted..

The world takes pretty things and turns them into poisonous things
"The prettiest plants are often the most poisonous ones"

The world takes beautiful things and breaks them until they are no longer beautiful..

The world takes gorgeous masterpieces and tears them apart until they are grotesque monstrosities..

So, I see myself as ugly; but I promise it's only to protect myself from the world.

Because my self hate IS my self protection.
