~*Beauty*~ As I look into the mirror, its beauty that I wish to see. But I cant have it my way, so you just have to accept me. I cant change the fact, that I was created this way. And I have to live like this, day after day. I just wish I could, change things on my face. Changing the sizes, and putting everything in the right place. I wont change a thing though, there was a reason I was made this way. So before you say anything, think of the words that you want to say. ~*If I was to die & could be 1 thing I would be a tear born in your eyes live on your cheeks and die on your lips*~ [This message has been edited by ERIN (edited 09-13-2000).] |

Erin, Go check out the 3rd stanza of 'The Truth of Being Human' again. It is your poem in different words. You are a beautiful and talented person, never let anyone say or convince you otherwise. Very uplifting poem and it shows the strength of character that you have in your heart, and at the end of the day that's all that matters. Thomas A. Plemmons Let not a word go unspoken, A thought go unheard, Let not one heart be broken Dream of a perfect world. -Th.A.P. |

ERIN- this is so good! At first I thought it was another "I want to change myself because I'm so ugly and the world hates me and I'm suicidal" poem, and those a good too, but then I read on and found that it was about accepting yourself. At least that's how I read it ![]() |

Lakewalker~~~Wow you really thought of my poem in a different way...No I do not think I am ugly and I am no where near being suicidal...There are things on me that I would love to change...But I wont do that...I was made this way for a reason...And God doesnt create anything ugly...So I have no reason to change myself...And yes I do accept myself... Thanks for the reply...Sorry about going on and on!!! ~*If I was to die & could be 1 thing I would be a tear born in your eyes live on your cheeks and die on your lips*~ |

Oh Erin, this really hit home with me. I often look in the mirror, and I hate what is looking back. I'm so glad that you have the all of the self-esteem that you need to face the world. Keep up the great work! ![]() |

Lovebug~~~You shouldnt hate yourself. Cause looks arent anything, its whats on the inside. You think people go out there and make friends for what they look like? I highly doubt it. They look for what counts and thats who you are. I think we all have been there at one point in our lives where we look in the mirror and dont like what we see. I know I have. UNC STAR~~~Im glad you liked it!!! Thank you both very much for the replies!!! ~*If I was to die & could be 1 thing I would be a tear born in your eyes live on your cheeks and die on your lips*~ |
