Description
I'd be pretty if I'd just smileIf I'd cut my hair a certain way
And cover myself up in that chemical crap you call make-up
But did you ever think that just maybe...
I don't wanna be pretty
That I just wanna be me
Who cares if no one ever calls me beautiful
Who cares if I'm never asked to dance
Hell I don't even know how to dance anyway
I don't care how the world sees me
I only care how I see me
And I think there's nothing wrong with the girl in the mirror
Sure she doesn't smile much but that's cause she's going through hell
Her face may look plain without any make-up
But that's just the way I like it
An old pair of jeans
The first t-shirt could find
My hair in a braid
I'm ready to go
To where no one cares just what I look like
Least of all me
It's a barn full of horses
That's where I choose to spend my days
Where no one cares about what I wear
Where I never have to hear "I'd be pretty if I'd just..."

I like it! I never cared much about make up or clothes, either. I'll get dolled up if it's really important, but for day-to-day living? Forget it.

That is a very moving poem. I'm sure you are very pretty because everyone is in their own way.

This is really beautiful, when I read it I though It's me who wrote it, that it's talking about me

I like this, It feels like something an Albertan Cowgirl would write in her spare time.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one who could care less about how I look! That makes for writing this, it means a lot!

This means a lot to me...don't let other people's shallow attitudes stop you from being happy with the way you are

These kinds of people are 'prettier' (though beauty isn't absolute) than the kind of people who care about superficial stuff like make-up, I'd say.

Awh, wow wonderful spoken.
It indeed shouldn't matter how a person looks like.
Real beauty is always on the inside of someone not on the outside.
There is nothing wrong with not wearing make-up. The thing what is left without it is called natural beauty.

I appreciate and understand the point behind this, but... I've seen what pics you have of yourself in the gallery, and you're not ugly .

This is me in completion. Pretty much. Minus the "hair in a braid" and horses. But other than that, it's me.
Also, you are beautiful just the way you are.

I agree. I don't wear make up and i almost always put on the first t-shirt I find. Nicely written.
