The Ugliest, Most Beautiful Girl

my style is a cover for how ugly i feel any love I give myself I got at a steal from compliments I don't believe of pretty things I can't perceive I've deceived myself about emotions I indulge in others some devour my devotion I'm left with a notion of neglect that I reflect upon I brought it upon myself to defect starting dawn I'm spawned from sensitivity but my activities roar of reason I'm a sored season of all weathers please I tell my mirror I'm not ready for all my capable feathers I fly broken winged I belch out passioned sings still I'm motionless in emotional things I long to bring me to a compromising balance instead of despising my very flaws and talents because I will always just have all that I am I want to love myself once again -B.

Perhaps those British boys who call themselves "One Direction" will tell you otherwise. This is a very pervasively descriptive write.

Wow B. What a very deep, and emotional, and powerful poem. I can feel your emotion and anger with every line. To give love to anyone else, you must first give love to yourself. Spoil yourself, and smile! be happy with what you have, for it is a true blessing of uniqueness. You are not a robot, you are a lovely, young and beautiful woman, great poem! I enjoyed it very much... very powerful! :) xoxo
