hiraeth6 in Poetry & Free Verse

pretty

at age 5

i was worthless, a mistake.

no good, a life ruiner

but i was oh so pretty

at age 9

i made you sick

i shouldve been aborted, i brought nothing but pain

but i was so beautiful

at age 13

i was sick and a whore

i couldnt do anything right

and i was still beautiful, but far too old

at age 15

i was numb, and so sad

i was worthless and meaningless

and nobody would love me

but i was still so pretty

at age 17

i dont feel pretty, i cannot

stand the face in the mirror that youve ruined for me.
