Is your joke still funny? (Book 1)

Don't you dare

Don't you dare,
Tell me I'm beautiful.

Until you've seen my scars that carve my body.
And the blood pours out of my soul.

Don't you dare,
Tell me I'm lovely.

Until I completely shut you out because I swore to myself you're just like the rest.
And you'll get sick of me.

Don't you dare,
Tell me I'm flawless.

Until you've seen me break down in tears.
I'll show you the darkness that consumes me and you'll run away.

But if you have seen my scars, bitterness and darkness.

Then perhaps,
I'll believe you.
