Insecurities
August 5, 2011
My voice is too soft
My neck is too long
My laugh is too quiet
My smile’s too strong
My farmer’s tan looks
Strange on a female
I say some words wrong
I mispronounce "tail"
I look like a nerd:
I’ve braces and glasses
I act nerdy too:
I ace all my classes
I might be too tall
My wrists are too thin
My skin isn’t perfect
My bangs need a trim
My friends all act young
My parents are old
But still I am perfect
Or so I am told
