Suffering Vanity
Standards with
No parameters
For imperfections
That create
Insecurities deeply
Running into
Obsession with
Every surgery
And procedure
For bigger
Lips and eyes
To disguise pain
Eating away your
Real face and
The path you
Are chasing down
Is completely pointless
Because all of
Us end up
In the ground
Regardless of how
Pretty we are.
