Ugly

There's nothing I can do
To make myself feel beautiful.
It's not like I haven't tried
I just feel like it's all been a lie.

The marred skin underneath
The makeup and the sheaths
Covering the imperfections
Of a past showing up in so many sections.

(None of this seems REAL)

Not one thing is available
To redeem any good qualities
And I really think this time
I've discovered all my insecurities.

(Scared to l(oo)k)

It would seem to me
I need to see
Something more than what
The mirror says.

(On the inside)

Though it seems that
I would feel better if
I didn't think I
Look like S.H.I.T.

    I really like this, I think you express yourself really well in this piece, hon. My only real criticism is that the ending could probably be revised a little bit, it seems too abrupt to me for some reason. I love it though.
