Am i pretty enough now? (very sad)

by VYXSIN   Jun 19, 2007


Am i pretty enough now?

she stands in front of a mirror,
and sweeps her hair to the side
a tear starts to fall
she knows he lied

Am i pretty enough now?

It started one night
when she was out
not giving a sh!t
who was out and about

she saw her boy-friend
he casually walked up to this girl
told her they just couldn't be
this boy was her world

she stood silently
then asked him why
"sorry your just too ugly"
a tear fell from her eye

Am i pretty enough now?

she fell to her knees
and was so confused
he got what he wanted from her
she fly gutted and used

she walked into a room
everyone was staring
no one said a thing
over the music which was blearing

they just stared at her
she turned to leave
they all cracked up laughing
its something she could never believe

Am i pretty enough now?

she started walking away
slammed the door
asked herself "am i ugly"
she didn't know anymore

She walked all the way home
tears in her eyes
"god you so pretty"
those were his exact lies

Am i pretty enough now?

She walked to the front door
and no one was home
she got out her keys and went inside
she felt cold and alone

she stormed up to her room
grabbed her knife
she knew what she wanted
to end her life

she then stormed on to the bathroom
looked in the mirror at the reflection
something looked wrong
she looked like an infection

red and blotchy, tears streaming down
she grabbed the knife and cut her face
feeling like a idiot, an ugly one
feeling like a total complete disgrace

then she cut her wrists, legs and arms
wrote something on the mirror with her blood
then stood in the bath
trying not to cause too much of a flood

pushed the plug into the plug-hole
and lay down waiting to die
filling up the bath with blood
not wanting to cry

but the tears continued falling
and the cuts continued bleeding
she knew this was the end
and all that left is a note to be reading

her mother came home
late that night
searched the house
from left to right

found her daughter in the bath
dead in her own blood
laying in the bath was her knife
floating amounts the flood

she read the note written one the mirror
she broke down into tears
not knowing that she felt this way
was one of her mothers biggest fears

with cuts on her arms, wrists and legs
and all over her face
her daughter knew deep down inside
to her family she brought disgrace

her mother collapsed into a pile
crying on the cold ground
underneath where her
daughters note was found

The blood satined mirror
said something foul
her last words were

Am i pretty enough now?

    Beautifully written :)
    "Looked in the mirror at her reflection. Something looked wrong." I know how that feels more then anyone.

    A beautiful yet sad poem, it held a lot of broken emotion yet it was an enjoyable read, If you go over the poem however and use some capps it would be a lot better.
    Great work! Lovely choice of heading 2 =]

    Wow !! that is so sad, it brought a tear to my eye.
    I could imagine the scene of the whole thing and see it in my mind.
    Your words were really great though in my opinion it was an excess usage of words.
    Over all it is such a great poem, and I think there is a really important message buried in it that everyone one should understand.

    Ah gosh, this was incredibly sad. The saddest of all things being that for a lot of people, this poem reflects their world. :[

    There's just a few tips I'd like to give you, to help your poetry appear more presentable and neat, if you like.

    -- First of all, make sure you capitalise where you need to. For example, when writing 'I'. I also capitalise the beginning of each line - but that's not mandatory or anything, just a personal preference.
    -- You used the wrong kind of 'your/you're' at one point in your poem. Watch out for grammatical mistakes like this, as it could put people off reading your poetry.
    -- Use more punctuation, such as full stops, commas, colons and semi colons. It helps with the flow of your poem, otherwise people don't know when to take a breath when reading through your poem.

    Overall, it's a well-penned poem. Very sad. :(

    This was really sad.
    it gets to the point across though.
    everyone is pretty in their own way.
    if you don't see it or not, they are.
    but don't tell them that their ugly because their not.

    some end up like this poem.
    and some don't but they feel alone.
    they have tired before.

    keep it up.
    keep on writing.
    love always and forever.
