Take a good look in the mirror
What does it tell you?
Makes you feel good?
Satisfies your soul?
Or does your skin itch
on the corners of your smile?
Or does your heart screams
with “no” every time 
You push colors
against your cheeks?
how you eyes refuse to close
so blackness can make them
bolder and bigger
and seen.
if you have the looks, darling 
you have everything 
they say. 
if you suppress the looks, darling
you lose everything. 
pretty doesn’t do
cute doesn’t do
but dazzling 
refigures 
your shape. 
it makes you wanted
and heard 
and looked up to
It makes you brave
and untouchable 
it makes you safe. 
the looks, my love
do no harm
if you have them. 
so take a longer look 
into your mirror
do you think
you might be
saved? 
unlike the rest of us? — Salma Abouzeid
