“she's not pretty enough”

do you know how that makes me feel?

I try so hard

to hit the par

but I guess not everyone hits their target.

Impressing you means a lot.

I don't even know why,

Oh wait, I almost forgot

You're forbidding me to fly.

Away from insecurities

Away from judgments.

Somewhere I can truly be myself.

Where I don't get hurt below the belt.
