not beautiful.

when you have done harm to yourself
physically
emotionally
mentally
he should not push back a lock of your hair as tears stream down your face
and whisper, "your scars are beautiful"
because the idea of you
thinking that you are not
[exquisite
brilliant
lovely]

is not beautiful
it is a wrong
and hurting yourself like that is like making out
the wrong to be right

rather, he should grab your hand
pull you up on your feet
and say, "we face this together, remember?"
