Beautiful Today

Beautiful  Today

I don't feel beautiful today

I love me
I hate me
The confusion inside
I can't any peace

I don't feel beautiful today

Some love me
Others rape me
I'm all that I've got
So don't try and sway me

I don't feel beautiful today

The sky is clear, with no clouds of gray
My mind is made up
I don't care what you say

I don't feel beautiful today

Your words are too kind
But my eyes have gone blind
And at the same time

I don't feel Ugly today

When I look in the mirror
My silent little horror
I SCEARM form the torture

I don't feel beautiful today

Surrounded by people
As I cripple these side notes
The shame and disgrace
With a smile on my face

I don't feel beautiful today

Scrattered and lost
Battered and bruised
Pain is the cost
Bleeding as I ooze.

I don't feel beautiful today

Tired and weak
My beauty is all you see
My struggle is real
As I fight to be free

I don't feel beautiful today

Reach for glory 
things will get better
Says my head to my heart
as I tattoo this letter

I don't feel beautiful today

There's still hope for tomorrow 
Can you help heal my sorrow
In my hell do I wallow
Heart empty and hallow

I don't feel beautiful today

I love it my friend but you are beautiful always because you are you and that is all it takes to be beautiful in your skin. Thank you for sharing.
