you told me
there was nothing
that i had to change
about myself
i believed you.
but now
i stare in the mirror
and take a good look
at myself
maybe i was too fat
maybe my face looked uglier
maybe my voice sounded
a little bit deeper
and now
i cry myself to sleep
wondering
and
pondering
what i should have
changed
about myself
because if i did,
perhaps you would have
had a reason
to stay
a little much longer.
it might be
a little too late for that
however
because now
there is another
and she
looks just like me
has a face like mine
speaks like me
- i just
wasn't her.

has a sweet loving voice
- she was
just better.
