Make Me Beautiful

You picked off the petals

And slit stems open.

And

Pasted

the

pieces

In the shapes of those very same flowers

To ink black spray painted poster boards.

You deemed it

Art.

Creating through the medium of destruction.

Tell me love

What did you

create

with the shards of me?

I assume it was a shallow stock image

Of a girl who used to smile,

Because your art always seemed

A lot like ruined things

Made to appear beautiful

But never quite whole.
