Battling my facial anatomy in the mirror again,
Every day is the same damn dissapointment.
Average eyes, unattractive.
Unfortunatley not pretty enough.
Telling myself that one day it will get better.
If only I could lie better.
For now I'll have to pretend.
Unknown to the rest of the world,
Loneliness is ugliness.

Thanks one of the reasons that it's short is because it's an acrostic poem (if you didn't notice) and the word beautiful is only so long, but yea I'm really proud of this one :)

Favorite Quote:
Boy, when you're dead, they really fix you up. I hope to hell when I do die somebody has sense enough to just dump me in the river or something. Anything except sticking me in a goddam cemetery.  People coming and putting a bunch of flowers on your stomach on Sunday, and all that crap. Who wants flowers when you're dead? Nobody. ~J.D. Salinger,The Catcher in the Rye,

I&#039;m selfish, impatient, &amp; a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control, &amp; at times hard to handle. But if you can&#039;t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don&#039;t deserve me at my best. <br /> - Marilyn Monroe

Fall in love or fall in hate; Get inspired or be depressed; Ace a test or flunk a class; Make babies or make art; Speak the truth or lie and cheat; Dance on tables or sit in the corner; Life is divine chaos. Embrace it. Breathe. And enjoy the ride...

it sounds amazing, like in the beginning it feels like the reader is right there with you and then the last statement is so strong. great job :)
