Trauma, But Make It Pretty.
<p>I wear my scars like accessories.</p><p>A diamond-studded necklace of all the times the world broke me…</p><p>But don’t blink... I’m still sparkling.</p><p><br/></p><p>I sip my pain in pink cups,</p><p>Laugh at my breakdowns like they’re punchlines,</p><p>Smile at the chaos, pretend it’s all nice.</p><p>Because honey, if nobody else is gonna clap for my survival…</p><p>I’ll do it myself.</p><p><br/></p><p>I scroll through memories like a Netflix binge,</p><p>Every betrayal, every heartbreak…</p><p>Rewind, replay, laugh at the absurdity of it all.</p><p>Yes, it hurt...yes, it still does ...</p><p>But the eyeliner? Still sharp. The heels? Still high.</p><p>The apocalypse can come… I’m already runway-ready.</p><p><br/></p><p>They say trauma makes you bitter.</p><p>I say trauma makes me snarky,</p><p>And painfully, painfully relatable.</p><p>I told them, “Watch me glimmer, watch me glitter.”</p><p>I look fine while my insides combust,</p><p>Dress in confidence, coated in stardust.</p><p><br/></p><p>Every heartbreak? A mixtape on replay.</p><p>Every lie? A song I slay every day.</p><p>They whisper, “She’s fragile,” I chuckle in heels,</p><p>The crown on my head hiding all my ordeals.</p><p><br/></p><p>I’m broken, I’m snarky, I’m darkly divine,</p><p>Serve trauma on a platter, but make it look fine.</p><p>I look fine while fighting battles nobody sees,</p><p>Smile wide enough to hide the scars</p><p>And I’ll throw confetti on my wounds</p><p>Just to make sure the world knows:</p><p>I survived.</p><p>And I look fabulous doing it.</p><p><br/></p><p>I’ve danced with demons in designer shoes,</p><p>Tangoed with chaos, but still I choose</p><p>To turn every scream into a punchline rhyme,</p><p>And polish my pain like a vintage wine. </p><p><br/></p><p>So yeah… I’m shattered, but I sparkle, shimmer and shine,</p><p>Turn nightmares to glitter, tears to fine wine.</p><p>I survived the storm, dressed like I own the apocalypse and I look damn witty,</p><p>Because queen moves, baby…</p><p>I make trauma pretty.</p><p><br/></p>
