I have been called ugly
never did it phase me
or at least that's what
I made myself think
just to numb the pain,
my self esteem plummeted
to this day I still struggle
fighting to make it rise again
but it fears being hurt
brawling to feel alive,
numbness was a fatal attraction
anxiety was it's sidekick
together they murdered bliss
food for thought words of truth.
