Every little flaw
Have you ever looked into the mirror
And hated what you saw
Wishing you were skinnier
Wishing you didnt have acne
Wishing for better hair
Hoping for a miracle to look like
The models in the magazines
With their beautiful faces
Hourglass shaped bodies
And their fantastic hair.
Every little flaw is a knife in
My gut when I look in the mirror
Seeing everything thats wrong with me
Seeing why no one wants me
I wish i was beautiful
I wish i was perfect
I wish
That i wasnt me
And hated what you saw
Wishing you were skinnier
Wishing you didnt have acne
Wishing for better hair
Hoping for a miracle to look like
The models in the magazines
With their beautiful faces
Hourglass shaped bodies
And their fantastic hair.
Every little flaw is a knife in
My gut when I look in the mirror
Seeing everything thats wrong with me
Seeing why no one wants me
I wish i was beautiful
I wish i was perfect
I wish
That i wasnt me

WTF!!!! No one has commented on this I know for a fact every girl feels this way... They want to be prettier or smarter or exactly how you said like those women in the magazines. I will admit I think that everytime I look in a mirror... so thank you for putting my thoughts into words. What an amazing piece of poetry you have written. congratulations KissMeGoodbye.

Madison avenue's "madmen" drive a market that strives to make us all feel 'less than'...many men secretly wish to be more like Pitt or Clooney but usually feel more like Fred Flinstone. You ain't alone, sweetheart...but remeber this: "no one can make you feel inferior without your consent." (E. Roosevelt)
