Pretty Hurts

Pretty Hurts By Dashanae Williams 

Girls repeat Beyonce saying, 

¨Pretty Hurts”

But they don’t really know what 

”Hurt” is until your really hurt 

Until you felt the pain 

And it left a stain , 

In your soul 

Too deep to take out. 

 

You smile for the cameras

But what do the cameras know? 

Nothing because the people behind the 

Camera are too slow 

I emphasize entertainers entertaining their fans

Because her hurt hardly hides her scars. 

 

Today’s society 

Is all about dress codes

And who has blonder hair, 

But what about getting good good grades? 

And a good pay?
