Truth

People say the if someone looks
You in the eyes they are telling
You the truth.

So can you honestly look me in the eyes
And tell me that you are perfect.
That you are truly happy.
That no one have ever hurt you.
That no one has ever made fun of you.
That you have never felt alone.
That the smile on your face is always real.
That you have never cried yourself to sleep.

You can't.
So don't make fun of me.
Don't tell me that I'm no good enough.
Don't call me names.
Don't pity me.
Don't tell me that I'm ugly.

I CAN look you in the eyes and tell you that
I'm me.
I'm different.
I'm happy.
I'm sad.
I'm not fake.
I'm beautiful.
And I'm perfect at being me.
