I am a girl.
This simple fact is known.
I have breasts,
And I have the parts down below.
I don't wear make-up.
I don't do my hair;
At least, no more than brushing it.
And I don't care for clothes.
For these reasons,
My mother claims,
"You're no girl,"
But I am one.
I am a girl
Who does not care
For material things
Such as clothes, hair, or make-up.
I am a girl
Who chooses to be natural.
Not because I think I'm beautiful
Without the coverings of make-up.
But because I believe
That even if you aren't,
Why hide a face
And make it worse?
Girls who wear
Gobs of make-up
Are hiding their faces,
Masking themselves.
But for what reason?
Once they're with someone
They'll have to take off
The mask eventually.
So why not
Start without one
To begin with?
It's easier.
Easier than
Hiding away
A face that
Someone will think is
Beautiful.
