Your shiny surface
reflects to me
a side of me
some never see
Brown long hair
bright blue eyes
framed by dark lashes
am i in disguise?
I tug at my hair
wanting it right
i cant do my eyeliner
in this light
I look down
i see my whole body
i can't believe i look like this
why would anyone want me?
I dont like the fact
i have hips
lots of curves
and dodgy bits
i dont always like
the way i look
i want to feel the way
girls do in books
that they are skinny
and pretty too
i dont want to be me
i want to be you
I know that i was created
perfect in Gods eyes
He blessed me with these curves
I still have to ask WHY??
I look at my own reflection
I dont always like what I see
but regardless of how i feel
At least i can say "i'm me"

I absolutly loved it. Not everyone is happy with the way they look but at least when you don't try to change it you can say your still you... you portrayed this so very well. I thought it was an amazing write that many people will enjoy. Including myself. Good luck in the contest.
One thing.. could you please put your user name in the author notes.
