~Beauty~

I picked up a magazine one day
About as happy as I could be
I knew I wasn't perfect
But I knew that I was me.
I smiled at a picture
Of a girl with her features perfect
Then looked at myself in the mirror
Quickly deciding that life wasn't fair
My hair wasn't as perfect as hers
And I had boring dark brown eyes
I studied that perfect girl
And I decided I wasn't quite the rite size
Page after page I began to see
The way a young girl should be
And suddenly I realized
I wanted that girl to be me
Quickly I began to notice
All the things that I should change
My eyes weren't the right colour
And my nose was a tad bit strange.
Brown hair wasn't quite the right shade
My body wasn't just the right size
The girl in the picture seemed happy
And look how she's surrounded by guys!
If that girl looks so joyful
That must be the way girls should look
And I decided as I turned the last page
That I'd do watever it took
After a while my hair was blond
My body much too small
And even though I tried and tried
There was nothing to do about being too tall
When I held the picture up to the mirror
I didn't see what I wanted to see
I didn't become the girl in the picture
I was only the same old me
That magazine taught me about beauty
And what all young girls should be
But now that I've tried to do it
I wonder what's wrong with just being me/myself?
