do you feel beautiful |

Do I bother you are you set in an uncomfortable mind when all I ever do is speak what it is that I am feeling at the moment Beautiful soft skin giving way to a comical countenance replacing the face which once was resplendent with youth now covered by pounds of makeup I see things all the time that make me sick like the way you look at me now disdainfully scorning my forked tongue as if the words were still not true You still dress trashy, too tightly pressed a surgeons natural body now replacing the one I once found beautiful but now so cosmopolitan, it has lost it's charm But the worst change of all is that within your mind, where you set yourself aloft of others, not graced with your altered contours leaving the hollow soul which is now you So what if your *edit* stand on their own and without a bra you look outstanding, unlike the real women who you forsake in image to be what you see as ideal I cannot be beside you nor do you seem to want me there as I am imperfect, below the standards of the male strippers whose eyes have no depth So go on and live in this false world where all have white white teeth and rock hard abs while I go to live happily with one who is happy with herself and shall never regret being with me [This message has been edited by Victoria (03-27-2002 11:35 PM).] |

It's what's inside that's important, James. This is so powerful. sky |
