I have a cousin, Brad
He knows little of my inner history
Yet he thinks to know me well
So what else is new?
He calls me the impossible B word all the time
Is he trying to bat 700,000 ... for me?
Who knows?
What Brad does know is that the B word
Makes me shiver, shrink, blink, duck, wriggle and squirm
For Pete sake, he says ...
Just accept the compliment graciously, Annie
Why doth it feel impossible
To accept or absorb Brad's positive perception of me?
Is it because I feel the need to lose 5 pounds ...
No matter what I weigh?Is this, I wonder, how most women think?
If beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Doth we equate attractiveness
With our mind's eye's take on irreconcilable notions of perfection?
As it's a common mistake
To assume to know the innermost thoughts of others
I remind myself to look into myself to see what I'm missing
And though my jean size be 28 petite
Please make no mistake ...
Petite can hide an elephant sized pain
Inside dark pockets of one's mind
:) I am PITA hear me roar!
