Chasing Demons

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
