I love you he said,
and he said his words were true.
But somehow deep inside
the girl always knew.
That one of these days,
down the road
he'd be the rock,
and she'd be the stone.

Just another pretty face
hiding in the crowd
Just another pretty face
screaming to get out.

I'm not all you think I am,
this can't all be true.
I'm just a girl you see,
a girl thats not like you.
I'm kicking and screaming,
but yet I'm not set free.
What will it take for you,
to see the real me?

Just another pretty face
hiding in the crowd
Just another pretty face
screaming to get out.

I'm really ugly
on the inside it's true.
My colors on the outside,
were never really true.
Sure I care for people,
but I never cared for you.

Just another pretty face
hiding in the crowd
Just another pretty face
screaming to get out

I used to sit aside,
and watch you play your game
I used to be the quiet girl,
but now it's not the same.

You took your chance,
you pulled me in,
now I can't go back again.
I'm sucked right in
they're all the same.
The "clicks" they call them,
it's just a game.

Just another pretty face
hiding in the crowd
Just another pretty face
screaming to get out

What would it be like
to be ugly for just one day?
Would I get picked on,
would I be left astray?

How do they feel,
sitting all alone?
Don't they mind,
staying home alone?

How bout change your ways right now?
Fill in all your blanks.
Trade shoes with your enemy's just for one mistake.
Trust in them to guide you, and ask of them your fates.
Sometimes your enemy's shoes
will open up new gates.

And...

If your just another pretty face
hiding in the crowd
Just another pretty face
scraming to get out,

sit back and watch the show,
listen to the song
make you sure you get your turn
to dance, and sing along...

LUV YA,
MEGHAN

Wow!!! I am locing this a lot. I love the topic you've have decided to come out with and talk about. And not only that, I think you're really brave to come out and admitt to things others wouldn't. Unfortunately, we live in a stereo-typical world. keep it up

Hey! This was an awesome poem and great topic!! You speak the awful truth and you speak it well. I liked this one a lot, great job =o)

I'm really ugly
on the inside it's true.
My colors on the outside,
were never really true.
Sure I care for people,
but I never cared for you.

Well the poem was nice.......
it's funny how you said in the poem:

"What would it be like
to be ugly for just one day?
Would I get picked on,
would I be left astray?

How do they feel,
sitting all alone?
Don't they mind,
staying home alone?"

First thing i thought was that everybody is ugly in their own special way. So it really doesn't matter ...anyway the poem was good......keep it real

"I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust."

I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them!

many good lines in this piece, loved all the rhyming and questioning in this poem, i especially liked these lines:
"I'm not all you think I am,
this can't all be true.
I'm just a girl you see,
a girl thats not like you."
