define: beautiful
I'm just gonna say what's on my mind
I hate, hate
feeling unbeautiful because
guys don't ask me out
and I'm not what some friends call beautiful
I want to stop being defined
by how skinny I am and
how much cleavage I I show
(which, by the way, is none)
I need to stop being defined by what I see in the mirror
and by what others see
I am who I am
and that won't change
I'm not blaming my teenage angst on the world
or the people around me
Because it is my fault.
Don't give me the
"you are beautiful onj the inside"
and "looks don't matter" crap.
I don't have unrealistic goals.
I'm not going to be an actress or a model because, frankly,
I'm just not pretty enough.
I'm not hating on myself.
It is my fault when I let myself feel unbeautiful
Yeah, it's hard when your friends make you feel like crap
and I have cried because no guys "like" me
because I act and dress like one of the boys.
It'll be over soon enough.
Basically, being a teenager
has kind of sucked so far.
Oh Well, I have 60 - 80 more years
after adolescence to enjoy.
To be pop-culture's defenition of beautiful,
I'd have to be an alien.
And, baby, you better believe that I am 100% human!
I'm never going to be the "cute" girl
I'll always be the uncomplimented, nerdy, acne covered, pixie cut loving, greeen adoring, Jesus freak, music geek, mathlete, who loves to write
ROCKSTAR I just am
awww bekah <3 <3 love you lots hun. i be loving it!!
ReplyDeleteWhere'd you perform it? And Bekah, all those things are just what the world says. If only our world wasn't so corrupted with "image"... You are beautiful, just sayin'! And your pixie cut is flippin' amazing!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI just performed it for my family and by myself in the living room.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing and I agree with it! I also sometimes let myself feel that way...
