STOP GLORIFYING ME

you make beauty out of pain

you see bullet wounds and use Band-Aids.

tell me I'm beautiful because of my scars,

say I'm so strong for fighting so hard.

But you have never been awake

at three in the morning, filled with hate.

stop telling me my pains are unique,

they're not beautiful, they're hurting me.

stop saying it's fun to swim in the sea

because it's easy for you but I'm drowning.

your poisonous words are like morphine

they look like help but are addicting.

because "you scar's are medals to show that you fought"

only works until I see you're wrong.

pain isn't a trophy, stop telling me so,

because romantic scars are hard to let go.

graveyard flowers are the only beauty

that comes from my insanity.

intentions are good, and I appreciate you,

but art isn't in beauty, it's in telling the truth.
