Beautiful Girl
June 17, 2014
The girl is beautiful,
But she doesn't see
Because people point and laugh,
And call her ugly
The beautiful girl
Starts to believe
So she scars her skin
Hoping it makes her pretty
The damaged girl
Now refuses to eat
Because people call her fat
And, to be beautiful, she needs to be skinny
The beautiful girl
Realizes she's lost
So, she hangs herself
Now realizing what beauty costs.
