But I scroll through my feed cursing angrily at my imperfect genes
Seeing how I could be so much prettier

But that doesn't change the flaws I see so blatantly
That perfect fitting dress showing things I do not have but could only think of wishingly
I want to feel confident but how can I if I see in front of me all I want to be.
