Opinions
I am me
Do U like what U see?
Honestly
I wish some secrets could be washed away
Just tell me
I heard from so and so that i'm pretty
But I've never heard it directly
Family and friends don't count
They would never call me ugly
The mirror tells one story
I hear so many different opinions
When I look in the mirror I feel confused
I know exactly the reaction I will receive when I leave
I know what pants will get attention
and what hairstyles will get compliments
Yet I walk out the door and I'm still confused
Cause the only opinion that matters is you
Will U like this shirt?
Will U notice me today?
I am me
It shouldn't matter what U see
But it does
Cause my heart is a dictator
My brain is caged
So when my heart says something
My brain says what does he think?
That makes me afraid
