    What really matters here and now
    Is getting by and school
    Now be pretty damnit, i said be pretty
    Don't you want to be cool?

    ^^ It's scary because that's the actually expectations...i feel that every day, jesse..

    Scene two is in your bathroom
    While you're screaming at your mirror
    Cause it can't make you pretty
    Even through the makeup that you wear

    ^^ It's so damn HARD when you can't see that you're pretty...it's so stupidly hard because you try to cover it and ur failing and it's frustrating..

    Well, now it's running down your cheeks
    You'll never be pretty, you'll never be cool
    I got a news flash, my precious
    They see right through you

    ^^ That's how i feel when i get home..

    In bright red lipstick,
    You write an "I hate you"
    To the mirror, to yourself
    To your "friends" at school

    ^^ I've done that...

    **stupid button..**

    You were too drunk to remember
    Not drunk enough to forget
    Scene four is under lover boy
    And above the party bed

    ^^ that stanza makes me think of our little monique..

    Scene six is the bathroom
    She�s screaming at the mirror
    For making her so stupid
    So weak in her tears

    ^^ I don't know what to say to this stanza. I think it was probably the strongest one to me...just because it's so relatable. You wrote it very well..

    �They say that I'm worthless
    Yeah, I knew that before
    They tell me what I'm not
    I tell them some more

    ^^ when you first showed me this stanza, i thought of the story surrounding it to be completely different. but it fits so perfectly here. once again...relatable...

    i think that actually a lot of people can relate to this, regardless of who it's actually about. just beause...all the stupid feelings are so cliche. but you caught them beautifully, m'dear wesse.

    5/5

    I don't like jess...i think you'll now why. it's written very well though. and it seemed repetitive, but i think it was just you reminding the reader. idk though. good job.
