// 40 (FINALE!)

🍂 COMPLETED SONG !

do you really think i'm pretty?
or are you just lying
to satisfy my vanity?
'cause it isn't working

you say i'm cute
but do you have a clue
what beauty really is?
'cause i ain't any of that

stop spreading lies
of compliments about me
because i know i'm ugly
you don't have to deceive me

i'm not anything beautiful
nothing adorable
so stop bullshitting
you don't have to say i'm pretty

but, if you're true in what you say
i can assure you that any flattery
will not affect me if i don't believe
that i am truly a beautiful thing

and that's the tea

is this just plain pity now?
you know i'm nothing great
yet you say i'm the opposite
i can't wrap my head around it

do you sincerely believe
that my smiles are like sunshine
and my kindness is admirable?
'cause all i see are deceiving lies

stop spreading lies
of compliments about me
because i know i'm ugly
you don't have to deceive me

i'm not anything beautiful
nothing adorable
so stop bullshitting
you don't have to say i'm pretty

but, if you're true in what you say
i can assure you that any flattery
will not affect me if i don't believe
that i am truly a beautiful thing

and that's the way i roll

but i'm aware that
i'm the deceitful one -
i don't take your flattery
'cause my insecurities don't let me

i'm so self-loathing
that i don't see anything
worthwhile in me
for you to compliment me

and that is why i can't take all this
i apologise, i hope you get it
but for now i will not believe any flattery
until i love myself entirely

stop spreading lies
of compliments about me
because i know i'm ugly
you don't have to deceive me

i'm not anything beautiful
nothing adorable
so stop bullshitting
you don't have to say i'm pretty

but, if you're true in what you say
i can assure you that any flattery
will not affect me if i don't believe
that i am truly a beautiful thing

and that's the tea

SISLEY SPEAKS. \\ FINALLY! i've finally completed this poetry book! this book has always maintained a rocky update schedule but we're finally here, on chapter 40, finished. this poetry book has been with me since the start of my account and now, one year later after creating my account, i'm done writing this !! big thanks to all of you who stuck around, or dropped a vote, or commented something - heck, even to the people who just read the introduction and never continued reading this again. i appreciate every read, comment, and vote and i'm so happy you decided to read my poems when in reality, i kinda have no idea what i'm actually doing.

but most especially, thank you to the following people for supporting me in this book, stuck around, or are just generally my friends:

❤️❤️❤️

also, if you have any questions regarding this book, just comment it below! i'll answer as soon as i can and i'll be happy to clear any confusion.

but, i'm not done yapping yet. there is going to be a second poetry book, definitely, but i'm not exactly sure when it will be published or when i'll start writing on it. for now, i'm just going to relax but i can say with absolute certainty that my poetry and my unfinished/finished songs are not yet over. i still have a bottle of emotions ready to explode into words to remind someone that they're not alone in whatever they're experiencing.

again, thank you all. thank you for watching me develop in my skills and as a person. thanks for showing your support, concern, and love ! i hope you have a wonderful day today wherever you are in the world.

signing off,
sisley 🌙
