Culture Poem by Lilac Time

I wrote this poem after watching the movie American psycho, and seeing the prostitutes. It's about how woman are taught to please men. It's about learning to love who you are for yourself, and not because other people do. I used to do so much for the attnetion of others because I it satisfied me. It made me feel good, filled up...after a while it didn't work and I realized it's because I wasn't doing it for myself, so it would never be enough. We're taught in some cultures, that we must do everything for someone else. We wear makeup to appear attractive...for other people. Why would we have to be attracted to ourselves? Why would we need to be attracted to who we are? We are already with ourselves....
