Pretty People

I envy those with elongated
Pretty threads
Running along the supple beds 
And a tone heavenly created

A mesmerizing scent
Caught from far
An unfamiliar star
Scarring those for rent

Shame how those eye-catching
Are mirroring the TNT to us exploded
And they watch as we eroded
Those that are naturally enchanting

So Pretty. Im Sure Your One Of Those 'Naturaly Enchanting" People Too. You Just Dont Realize It. And Remember. Who You ARE. Counts Too. If Your Beautiful On The Outside And Ugly On The Inside (Like My Sister) Then Your Worth Nothing. If Your Beautiful On The Inside (Even If Your Not On The Out Side) Then Your Worth More Then Gold. Always Remember That. Peace And Love. Boo Boo
