You asked me why I don't believe it when you tell me I'm beautiful

But you only see the girl I am now not who I was

You do not see the girl who sat alone on the bus crying

You do not know the girl with the big glasses and crooked teeth

You do not know the girl with no friends and no sleepovers

You do not know the girl who was constantly teased for being fat

You do not know the girl who was always picked last

You do not know the girl was has listened to rumors about herself

You do not know the girl who was asked out as a joke

You do not know the girl who was tripped and shoved

You do not know the girl who was always sick so she could stay

You do not know the girl who starved herself so she could fit in

You do not know the girl who hates herself because everyone else did

This is why I will never believe

I'm beautiful
