Nancy Phan Poet Free verse

Untitled

all you care about is how you look

spending hours and hours on your face

trying to cover an speck of beauty you have, that you forget

all the morals you have in yourself

you lost all knowledge that has been placed in your head

so desperate that you'll get on your knees 

and do anything for the taste of popularity

popularity, whats' so special about it?

you look down on people, make them feel bad about themselves, and truly just be fake

is it the attention you crave?

why can't you be known for being you?

they say you have to love yourself before others

so why give a damn about what they say?

it's your life, live it with no hesitation.
