Pretty..............ugly

by VYXSIN   Dec 29, 2005


I can see a problem
an imperfection i cant rearrange
the problem is me
a something i cant change

i wish the girl in the mirror
staring back at me
would just disappear
into something i cannot see

the impression I'm getting
is that I'm not good enough
i cant hide my face with make up
so why give a stuff

its not just one thing
but everything thats me
i didnt see why
it cant be the inside people see

i wish, i pray, i try
i just want to look good
i want to look as good as
super-models should

or are they just fake?
they're covered in make up right?
so that means their real face
is way out of sight

i would like to be skinny
and get some nice guys
but be as i am
they run away like fly

i would like to be called
nice names with the letters rearranged
but this is me
something i cant change

    This is a great poem I have to say. I know that i've been picked on before and thought i wasn't the pretty's thing out there, but at time goes by now I don't care what people think of me, if you have the time to make fun of people then your not worth it at all to me. thats my opinion I have. =]

    keep it up.
    keep on writing.
    love always and forever.

    Very deep and heartfelt. Beauty isn't all that matters it is just the shallow people that care about beauty only. Super models are fake and no one can be like them unless they do a 100 surgeries. Great poem again with an important message.

    Great write! This poem was amazingly well written... if I had to pick one word for it, I would pick "astonishing". 5/5 for sure! (use grammar :P)

    ^^How I loved that.

    As I was reading this, I was thinking holy crap how many people can relate to this? I bet it's a hell of a lot.

    You've portrayed pain and despair so well in this piece..beautifully written.
