Am I really beautiful

by SavannahHoward   Dec 2, 2004


What is beauty?
why is that what we strive for?
I am only the empty box inside...
A soul with a void
an empty pit of emotion
the abyss of my heart is all i have
i have nothing...
but you see the outside
a counterfeit smile
and this is what is beautiful?
dive into my mind and see the true me....
is that what beauty is?

    Hamster...you're an idiot...It's depressing for young girls who look in the mirror and see something dreadful! And you wouldn't get it anyway you're a little girl who probably thinks the world of herself.....
    UGH anyway ....Your poem has me speechless....Honest and true....I love it. It's something I feel very strongly about. Beauty is only skin deep and what counts is EVERYTHING that's on the INSIDE. What you see when you first look at someone is everything that is not important, they could be the most beautiful thing in the world but the way they treat you behind closed doors is always something different. I hate reading poems about girls who look in the mirror and see themselves being ugly....or fat....I hate it!!! I know I am rambling and I apologize but like I said it's something that I take seriously.
