Ugly Face

by Miss Hailey   Oct 26, 2006


Look at this face,
It's so ugly, it feels me with disgrace,
I hate how I look,
A face so flat like the face of a book,
A face so dirty and unclean,
It haunts me even in my own dream,
Beauty is everything,
I just wanna look like a beautiful thing,
I look in the mirror and I don't like what I see,
I hate the person staring back at me,
I wish this ugly face was only a mask,
Yes, I hate myself so don't even ask,
I wanna carve this skin out,
Being perfect and beautiful is what it's all about,
I wanna be like those pretty girls who walks with pride,
Pretty girls who have nothing to hide,
I wanna be them for a day,
I don't care what anybody say,
Don't tell me to follow my dream,
When trying to fulfill it by being those pretty girls, you tell me I have no self-esteem,
Skinny, pretty, and perfect is what I dream of being,
Seeing is believing,
So don't tell me I'm pretty already,
How come it's only an ugly face that stares back at me?
I wish I could shed this skin,
Burn away all the ugly parts along with my sin,
And for once, have confidence in my self-image,
Be able to walk up to a guy with courage,
But so much for dreaming till I get there,
Hope isn't bigger than my fear,
I know I will never be pretty,
I know that ugliness is all I'll ever get to see,
A hideous beast is all that I'll ever be,
That ugly girl they'll be talking about will probably just be me.

    Ok first off, this poem was MARVELOUS. raelly just an amazing write. i loved it. but i ahve soo much to tell you.
    i know how irritating it gets having ppl all up in ur face and like "hey dont be such a recluse lighten up get more confidence and self esteem" because ppl do that sorta junk to me all the time. they think it helps, but it really doesnt. it honestly just annoys me. so im not going to say that to you. i just want to say,
    look around at everybody. i noticed this a couple weeks ago when my brother pointed it out to me.
    EVERYBODY, no matter how popular or unpopular or fat or skinny or W/E...
    EVERYBODY is beautiful in their own way. lately ive been looking at ppls faces alot, and if somebody has a wierd shaped nose, theyll have pretty eyes. or if theyre lips are too thin, theyre hair will be gorgeous. stuff like that. i think that we all have our special qualities, and our flaws.
    no doubt about it that everybody has flaws.
    i used to think that i was an ugly piece of trash that was worthless. but ive been trying REALLY hard to look into a mirror, and just FORCE myself to point out the good things. you should do the same. its given me alot more confidence.
    and i know how much it sucks, i know how it feels to think ur soo ufgly.
    but, even though ive never seen you and i never will,
    i bet you anything ur gorgeous.
    and lol usually i dont leave comments this long, specially to ppl i dont know or w/e
    but i could relate to this SO much and i saw the oppurtunity to help so yeah..
    i just wanted to say that, because everybody needs to hear it.
    i just hope i helped.
    comment/rate some of my stuff sometime k?
    lol thanks
    and sorry the comment was long
    but its all true
    haha
    neways yeahh
