why not?

Why am I not cute?

is it because my eyes are not blue

is it because she's the one

who really loves you

and I'm only here

for the soul purpose of hanging out with you

Why am I not cute

is it because...

I don't wear the right brand of shoes

I'm not girly enough

or maybe because 

I wear the hair style that I choose

braidlocs

that's me

homies, ya see...

I want o be a pretty girl

allowed to do the pretty girl rock

without being mocked

or even doubting myself

So why am I not cute

it is because I'm pretty..

"pretty ugly"

at least that's what they say

but their words don't hurt me

who cares anyway

I know I'm not cute 

I know I'm not pretty 

I'm beautiful

and I proudly accept that

so however you feel

whoever you are

Go ahead

feel that way

'cause I'm beautiful

even if I'm not a star
