I Want People to Share Their Poetry

Beauty is pain
That's what I’ve been told
You need to fit in
No time for being bold
Stay silent
Not even a single word
Don't get violent
That would be absurd
Keep calm
Put on a smile
Relax your palm
Or you’ll ruin your style
Stay perfect
Don't let them see your flaws
But I checked
It's not against the law
We ask why
Does everyone want me to change
Yet we don't realize
That when we judge, we are the same
You think you’re better
Not even close
No one understands her
But the pain still grows
She cries at night
Why am I not good enough
But when it's daylight
She has to be tough
You don't know
When it feels so grim
He may not show
But it kills him
He lays down
Gets a short breath of air
But then he drowns
Cause you don't like what he wears
Yeah, I’m 15 and yeah, I’m a girl
But I also wait to be accepted by the world
