Beautiful

by Gem   Dec 14, 2006


She cries desperate tears into her pillow
Wishing she could change her face and looks
She spends countless hours with the mirror
Inspecting all her crannies and nooks

She's so blind to the image she sees
Only seeing her imperfections and flaws
Maybe she's blinded by the tears in her eyes
As her heart battle on in this losing war

She lets what people say bring her down
Her mind is haunted by the cruel taunts
She starts to feel ashamed of the way she looks
She wishes she had what everyone else flaunts

She can buy all the make-up Rimmel can make
She can wear the right clothes and style her hair
But deep inside she's still so insecure
The feeling of self confidence is still so rare

What she doesn't realise is she's beautiful
No matter what any girl or boy says
The one thing that we all need to appreciate
Is we're all beautiful in every way ©

(I need to take this poem into consideration along with a number of other people x)

    You girls may think what you want but if the guy really loves you then to him you can be coverd head to toe in mud and he'll still be the proudest man alive to hold your hand in public :)) face it you may think you're not perfect but to us perfection is you :)) another great poem :))

    Ok, this was much better than the other one you did like this. This one had a deeper feel to it. And I finally got mine done too, which you commented on. It's funny how beautiful makeup can make you feel when it's on and how ashamed, or at least awkward when it's off. But it should be the reversal, all though nothing is wrong with makeup we should be sure it's not our crutch! That it's nice to wear it out, but that we should keep our confidence no matter what!
    Good job! I'm not sure I've blabbered this much on one of your poems before. And it's nice to see you do stuff other than love poems, though you are really good at em. I broke free of it too!
