I'm Not

I'm not beautiful,
As much as I wish I were,
I smother my face in fakehood,
Wearing namebrand and expensive fur.

I may not be popular,
Just another nobody in a world of beauty,
Plain to the glistening eye,
Unknown in this endless sea.

I'm not smart,
My intelligence is measured by marks,
But when it comes to the real world,
I'm a fish surrounded by sharks.

I'm not outgoing,
My mind etched with fear,
Never daring to talk to you,
To lonely to wipe away this tear.

I'm not perfect,
Like those women made of wax,
And despite this place full of fakes,
The real person, me, is the one who lacks.

There's a lot of things I'm not,
But there's one thing I am that I know;
I am in love with you, and if I had you,
I'd never let you go.
