Self Esteem
Once upon a time,
I wanted to be just like a princess
pink dresses,and barrettes
princesses were pretty
Once upon a time,
I wanted to be just like mommy,
red lipstick and high heels,
mommy was pretty
Once upon a time,
I wanted to be just like my friends,
t-shirts and flipflops
my friends were pretty
Once upon a time,
I wanted to be just like that girl on t.v,
bellytops and mini skirts
that girl was pretty
Once upon a time,
I wanted to be just like that model
skinny and revealing
that model was pretty
But now is the time,
I just want to be me,
average and dorky,
because that me isin't pretty
that me, is beautiful.
