Mirror Mirror On The Wall.
Why am I not beautiful and tall?
Why oh why,
Must you show?
This fat girl,
Whom I don’t even know?
Mirror Mirror On the Wall.
Why oh why,
Were you made at all?
You cause so many girls,
So much pain.
Liar Liar on the wall.
Tell me the truth,
Tell it all.
I’m beautiful and tall,
I’m not fat and ugly at all!
I’m not what you make me out to be.

Mirrors tend to give us our self-esteem .... but the true beauty is unseen.

One of those perfect poems that can't be touched by anything! Great job and I love the description, really speaks to the hearts of many.

Very, very good! It's got a great message that girls need to hear. Coming from someone who has struggled with Anorexia in the past, this poem means a lot to me. It's very encouraging. Wonderful job!
