PAST, by Breann

There must be something wrong with me,
Because I’m not like other girls.
Guys don’t find me attractive or pretty
And I’ve never been someone else’s whole world.
I don’t what I’ve done to be treated this way.
I must appear so ugly and plain
I’ve been brought down by what people say,
And they don’t care that they’ve cause me pain.

I hate seeing myself in the mirror
Because I see the imperfections there.
My views on love have grown so bitter
But I’ll pretend not to care.

I won’t treat them this way,
Because it’s not who I am.
I’ll be kind and always have something nice to say.
Even if I haven’t always been treated like a human.
