Reflected images in the looking glass
Taunt me, laugh and whisper to me
"Your not Beautiful"
Teen magazines litter the floor
I search in desperate haste to find a way,
To make me Beautiful
But my body type is wrong,
My hair is too short,
My chest too flat,
And the magazines say I'm not Beautiful
Reflected images in the looking glass
Taunt me, laugh, and whisper
"Your not Beautiful"
I pass up my tray at the lunch line
Skip dinner because of my huge lunch
And chew gum to forget the hunger pains
I'm too fat
I need to lose more wieght
But I cannot ignore the model's pictures
They tell me that i'm not beautiful
Reflected images in the looking glass
Taunt me, laugh, and whisper
"Your not Beautiful"
I plan every outfit so carefully
Follow the trends to the tee
But every morning I fear
That the stye will change
I will be yesterday's news
And still I hear the voices teasing me
"You are so ugly!"
Reflected images in the looking glass
Taunt me, laugh, and whisper
"Your not Beautiful"
And now I stand in front of my mirror
Staring at the ghost person reflected there
In my frantic race tword the World's approval
I carved away what made me unique,
What made me, me!
Yes, I carved away what made me...
Beautiful

- i love this poem, but maybe instead of putting "You are so ugly" you can put "you're not beautiful" again. You don't have too though. Either the poem will still be fantastic!

- It's spelled "toward". Other than that, it's fantastic! A great message to teenage (and even some adult) women. 5/5

Man, this is great! More girls need to get this message! I have a friend who always says she's fat and I always want to beat her up when she says that! Lol yeah I hate it when people freak over this stuff, I couldn't care less. So "Beautiful" poem! *Love~*
