Insecurity
It seems these days that
everyone has a shiny mirror
saying "never good enough."
as they begin to draw nearer
their reflection is a cross
of familiar self-doubt plus
mascara stains and lip gloss.
Those with good intentions
will tell you to simply ignore
the toxic words that sting
but the message is your
own messy handwriting.
