Insecure Girl

Insecure girl,
Your confident walk,
Pulls the curtains so the majority do not witness what goes on behind your mask.

Insecure girl,
I know how you feel,
goodbye kisses have a way of leaving a mark on the faces of the heartbroken.

Insecure girl,
You choose to fall far from the flock and follow a black sheep.
Its no wonder you feel lost.

Insecure girl,
Your 100 euro bobby brown may hide the black spots on your forehead
But the story remains written all over your face in permanent ink.

Insecure girl,
You passive smoker,
You watch as others govern the kingdom of your mind.

Insecure girl,
It makes me laugh when I hear you talk like your mama never forbade your use of such language.
You naïve fool, you think it makes you sound wise.

Insecure girl,
Didn't your mother also tell you of how she spent 9 months forcing courage down her umbilical cord?
Yet you walk around like shattered glass.

Insecure girl,
I hope you read this and know I'm talking about you
because I really want you to know you're bigger than you think.
