Body

How nice it would be to stretch and pull at your skin

To take some away

Or add more

The new scars that makeup won't cover 

Imagine just smoothing over your skin,

Getting rid of imperfections.

In society,

You would be considered an imperfection

They expect everyone to be perfect.

No one is perfect.

They don't care

No one does

It would be easier to just disappear than to fit their standards.

How nice that would be

To be nonexistent

You can't have imperfections if you're nonexistent.

Your body does not exist if you're nonexistent.

Dysphoria doesn’t exist if you're nonexistent.

If you're even allowed to call it dysphoria.

Your feminine body shape makes you want to dig into your skin and rip it apart.

But you've already done that

But the blade doesn't run that deep.
