I hate the way my hair looks



I love the way her hair looks


Ugly brown clumps and snarls 



messy chocolate brown


I hate the pimples on my face

They block out everything 



her face is so smooth

barely a freckle


My rolls of fat stick out 

Fleshy, hideous 


she's perfect 

beautiful 



I wish I looked like the other girls 




i wish the other girls looked like her



Everyday, I only get worse 





everyday she only gets prettier


Why am I even here? 

I want to die 

I will never be good enough





im so glad shes here

she lights up my world 

 but i will never be good enough




Everyone hates me 






everyone hates me




But I don't care 

Not much 



but i dont care

as long as she knows im here



I just wish 

Someone would notice me 



i wish she 

would notice me



I feel lost 

Numb 

Broken 

Something's wrong with me






she always looks so sad tho

is she okay?





Nobody notices my pain 

I should just die






maybe i should talk to her

let her know im here



but no 

i dont want to make

a fool of myself 



and anyway

shes probably fine
