6 years old.
Blue ribbon, silk ribbon,
Streaming through my hair.
Pigtails, toothless smile;
Mirror am I pretty yet?
10 years old.
Ponytail, bobby pins,
Taming my messy hair.
Chubby thighs, crooked smile;
Mirror am I pretty yet?
14 years old.
Straight hair, lipstick,
Mascara running down my face.
Trembling knees, broken smile;
Mirror am I pretty yet?
16 years old.
Messy bun, chapped lips,
Sobbing eyes and bloody wrist.
Bony thighs, fake smile;
Mirror am I pretty yet?
