In The Mirror


I look in the mirror,
And want to cry,
All I can do,
Is ask myself why.

Why am I ugly,
Why am I fat,
Why cant I stop eating,
Why cant I be like that.

Be that girl,
That isnt scared,
To show off their body,
Or of being compaired.

<p>This is a beautiful poem. but, you are not ugly. you are beautiful. everyone has things they dont like about themselves, but try not to let what others say effect how you feel. I feel this way too, but then I remind myself that no one should think for me. just remember you are beautiful.</p>
