Ugly Or Pretty

Everyone says im pretty and beautiful or cute.
So why dont i believe them.
Many people say I shouldnt worry about looks, but i do.
So many people have said im ugly, I should die.
Im so used to it, it amazes me that people would think otherwise.
I dont think ill ever think of myself anything but ugly.
I asked my friend Casey if he'd date someone ugly like lil ole me,
he said yes but that im not ugly, he considered me cute!
Im so happy, so special, so praised.
Everyone says im pretty and beautiful or cute.
So why dont I believe them,
