I wonna look like cheryl cole or maybe even marilyn monroe

I’m not pretty and I’m not smart and it fills me with pain deep in my heart

And I wonna be someone else, anyone else, but just not me.

I put on my lipstick and do up my hair taking so much time and so much care

Cus I wonna look like cheryl cole or maybe even marilyn monroe

But when I look in the mirror all I see, is disappointment, cus that’s just me!

And it’s not right and it’s not fair, and I try to pretend that I just don’t care

But the truth is its not fooling me because though all of these tears I can see

Super models and beauty queens, there walking around, everywhere it seems

I look at them and I look back at me, to try to compare I wouldn’t even dare!

Cus their so right and I’m so wrong I know my faults go on and on

 

This pain I feel is driving me insane and I know I’ve only got myself to blame

Because it shouldn’t matter, I shouldn’t even care, I’m more than this body that I wear when did this begin, why did this start, when did I stick this knife in to my heart?

I don’t know, and I’m not even sure, why I’m hurting, anymore

And all I want is to be free, to live my life without any insecurity

Hope this is just a poem and not your story. Not every one is beautiful on the out side, I'm the king of ugly if that is all that counts. We have to learn to love that face we see in the mirror every morning and know the heart that can make it smile is full of gold.

i am sorry to say it is about me,and i know you are right but its not easy, i think its even more diffuclt for women because of all the pressure they are under to look good, anyways thank you very much for your comment :)

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
