I want those heels.
I want to be that girl
who wears sky-high stilettos
and a little black dress.
I want to be that girl
who makes people break their necks,
just trying to catch a glimpse.
I want to be that girl
who has men lined up,
competing for her attention.
But I'm not.
I'm that girl who rocks Chuck Taylors.
I'm that girl who can never have enough
ink in her skin.
I'm that girl who doesn't fake tan.
When I go out,
I pray that just for one night
I can be that drop-dead gorgeous girl
and impress someone with my lean muscle,
my over-done make up,
and my drunk demeanor
But everyone knows
I'm faking.
Why do I even care?
I hate that girl
who acts stupid to be attractive.
I hate that girl
who sacrifices her dignity
to maintain her reputation.
I hate that girl
who only buys designer bags.
I hate that girl
who manipulates people like dolls.
I'm not that girl.
So why do I still want to be her?
We all know "that girl."

Comments please! This is another piece I'm iffy about.

This is so true! It brings joy to my heart and tears to my eyes that someone "understands" this!
