Social networks
Entrap, mislead
Leave me
Disconsolate
Wishing for more
Make me feel
Unknown, unloved
Unprepossessing
Lowering
My already low self esteem
Bruising
My already deflated ego
But I brush aside this feeling
As I see
Pictures changed
At the speed of lightening bolts
With a slight change in pose
Edited in a manner that won’t disclose
Flawed skin and minor deformities
Beneath the glitz and glamour lies
Real-life absurdities
Behind the bravado
The pancake makeup
Hides a girl just like me
Wanting to be
Accepted, admired,
Respected, desired
Torn between the conflict of
Being an anti-conformist and “fitting in”
