Beautiful

 

I look at my reflection and it speaks to me

“You’re ugly, you’re fat, you’re mean, don’t you see?”

Sadness creep  in and I suddenly feel all alone

Ugly thoughts, sending chills to my bone

 

I’ve always thought that I was ugly, always second best

Wasn’t pretty or thin like the rest

My face’s a mess, pimples all on it

Unlady-like, And all my clothes won’t fit

 

I compare myself to others, they all have this glow

They look like teens while I grow up slow

I try my best to be what they want

But confidence is still something I can’t flaunt

 

I become depressed, alone and sad

Thinking of what I want instead of what I had

Not being contented, sin it can be

I should learn to love me for me

 

I am pretty too, just in my own way

Solemn at night, hyper by day

I am talented, a miss all-in-one

And never has my glow or my beauty gone

 

I look at my reflection and it speaks to me

“You’re beautiful, you’re smart, don’t you see?”

Positive thought come and I suddenly feel happy

I tell myself “There’s no one else I’d rather be than me”
