You are beautiful in too many ways

Look in the mirror “Just not pretty enough” you tell yourself
Walk around comparing yourself to every other girl you see.
“If only, I looked like that….I’d be pretty”
I wish you could see what I see, because it isn’t true what you say
You’re beautiful but you’re falling apart
A beautiful tragedy with a bruised heart

But you still turn to him to kiss the pain away
He holds you for the night and you think that everything is alright
Hide your misery from yourself for an hour or two
But in the morning it washes the good feelings away
“You’re beautiful” he says and you look away
A perfect tragedy with her heart on her sleeve

You end up in your room with tears in your eyes
Can’t help but ask God why?
Why he couldn’t make you a little better?
I hold you in my arms with tears falling silently
Asking God to help you realize, you’re beautiful in a special way.
A beautiful breakdown with love for everyone but herself.
