Me

I
I have blonde hair
I pluck my eyebrows
I have my father’s nose
my mother’s hands
I have crooked teeth
and green eyes
I play guitar
I used to get sick alot
I like the color of wine
I’ve cheated on boyfriends
I’ve owned fake ID
But my hair is still blonde
and my teeth are still crooked
and I probably won’t always like
the color of wine
II
I have firm breasts
I have lips that always smile
I have veins that bleed
I laugh when I’m nervous
I feel the pain of others
but cry for no reason
I like open flame
I’ve been selfish since a child
I’m from Alaska
but hate the cold
I’ve cheated on diets
I’ve faked applications
But I still bleed
and my lips still smile
and my breasts won’t
always be firm
