Side character,
Ugly stepsister ,
Odd little caricature,
Wish I were slimmer,
Face thinner,
Just like the Insta pictures,
Pretty figures,
Little whispers,
Scared of mirrors,
Should I skip more dinners?
Til my figure, is totally killer.
Jealous of my “little” sister.
Model pretty, your man’d be dizzy.
I know I’m silly.
But that’s insecurity,
Immaturity, complete obscurity.
Losing myself in “PRETTY” society.
Pretty; pretty is a word defined by ones own idea.
My idea is inhuman, true delusion.
Like the model Twiggy
I just want to be “PRETTY”.

Whiskey At Dusk
Guess the whiskey was more important to you in the end, wasn’t it? It was more than the well-being of your friends; more vital than showing up to the places you promised you would and could come to; more critical of a matter than fulfilling your damn responsibilities and getting the press off your back.
