Pretty

I'm not pretty and I'm not sweet
I'm skinny and scrawny and I lack meat
All I've ever wanted is somebody who loves me and cares
Without me having to worry about my face an hair
Is it me?
Am I ugly?
Is it my personality?
Maybe I'm just not pretty?
Suddenly all my worst fears are true
nobody will love me like they love you

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
