Pretty Girls
September 8, 2018
Pretty Girl
Pretty Girl
Does everyone see what I see
everyone sees a pretty girl
But I see much more
I see a girl who cries herself to sleep
I see a girl who works a parttime job to feed herself and he little sister
I see a girl working hard for a scholarship because she knows she can afford college
People just see the surface
But inside you are broken and insecure
No one understands because they all believe you are
Perfect
But no one perfect not even the pretty girls

Thank you for posting this. It shows how appearances are not everything, and people can never really know what is going on in someone's life. I love this poem! Please keep writing more!
I've had this idea for a long time and I'm kinda nervous to put it out hope ya like it.
