I Cant Stand Myself...

by Kailynn Makenna   May 14, 2005


As I look into the mirror
I can’t stand what I see
And it reminds me how I long
To be anyone but me

My face is such a mess
With no beauty to be found
And I’ve come to the conclusion
That I'm the ugliest kid around

People tell me that I'm skinny
But I assure you that their wrong
Because I realize that this world
Is not where I belong

And there’s nothing I can do
To improve this face of mine
And I'm getting very tired
Of telling you I'm fine

I don’t know how you stand
To look at me each day
Because I know that once you see me
You want to turn and walk away

And now I want to say
That I’ve tried my very best
To try and improve my face
And look like all the rest…

    HIT THE HEART! AFTER HAVING MY DAUGHTER I FELT LIKE THE UGLIEST PERSON EVER! IT LEFT MARKS AND I JUST DIDNT FEEL GREAT! BUT I LEARNED TO LOVE CERTAIN FEATURES ABOUT ME, LIKE MY HAIR, MY FRECKLES I HAD ONCE HATED, MY BIG EARS THAT SOME GUYS THOUGHT WERE CUTE, IF YOU START OFF SLOWLY YOU WILL SOON LEARN TO LOVE YOURSELF! KEEP UR HEAD UP AND WRITE ME IF YOU NEED TO! GREAT POEM, 5!
