What you want of me

I dress the way you wants me to

Hair curled and nicely laid on my shoulders

My face covered not by my mask but a face

That does not look like mine but someone else

My legs showing but not too much by a dress that

Makes me feel as if i am being stared at

A jacket covering up the scars on my arms that

I don't want people to see for they will get the wrong idea

Shoes that make my feet ache but make me slightly taller

But forgive me if those shoes shoe the tattoo on my foot

No ear piercings other then the basic lobe

No noise piercing because it made me look like a bitch

Wear your contacts not your glasses

Because they will make you look for attractive

You make this image of me

That isn't truly me but the person you make me be

My hair pulled up and my face looking like my own

A pair of jean and a shirt that makes me feel ok

Shoes that wrap around me feet and make me feel comfortable

My glasses on my face because contacts make my eyes burn

My piercings crawling up my ear

And my nose pierced and shining bright

That is the me i wanna be not the me you make me

But all you want is your perfect picture of reality.
