I layered my face with Maybelline, Olay
Tried to be one of them,
They laughed at my wonky eye liner.
Mocked the mahogany on my lips.
I doused myself with expensive sweetness
Tried to be one of them
They frowned at my choices
Sniggered at my lack of taste
I gulped down starbucks, frequented Mc Donalds
Tried to be one of them
They told me i was gaining weight
pointed at barely visible pockets of fat
i carried an iphone, earphones tucked in my ears
