Something im not

by Caitlin Morgan   Sep 4, 2006


I looked in the mirror.
And frowned in pity
Then i looked out the window
At the girls who were pretty

They beautiful fair hair
And they clothes were so neat
Their manicured toes
looked like diamonds on their feet

I wished i was like them
They were popular and cool
They got all of the attention
And were hottest in the school

The more i thought about it
The more happy i became
Because i realised that everyone
doesnt have to be the same

I looked in the mirror
for one last time
and i saw myself again
as if being ugly was a crime

I wanted to be like them
I wanted to be sassy and hot
But i knew that if i was...
I would be something im not
