A simple pimple

I stood by the mirror,
as I noticed to my horror,
that a tiny pimple had emerged,
and to pluck it my heart urged

I immediately washed my face,
which burned as the water touched it’s surface.
The pain almost made me cry,
but I tried to gently pat it dry.

Acne as the doctors call it,
could be a teenagers biggest demerit,
as it erupts all over blemishing the skin,
hurting as though someone’s pricking with a pin

It’s an evil with practically no cure,
suffer as the skin can never again feel pure,
trying all the drugs available in market,
only to realize nothing has any effect.

However, I applied some lotion,
though it’s a useless medication.
Red to yellow to white changed it’s color,
from day to day and hour to hour.

I tried to keep my cool,
as the pus began to drool.
It stayed unconquered for three days,
and then vanished without a trace
