I am the most imperfect girl,
The one you see with hair so curled.
They say that my skin's black,
And that I am very, very fat.
I fear facing my mirror
'Coz I feel i'm watching a film with a theme that's horror.
I hate measuring my height,
Oh, dear! It doesn't exceed five!
Inspite of these negative criticisms,
I stayed contented with who I am.
Not until he came and made me fall,
I've decided to change for him to feel the same.
I learned to wear high heels even if it gives my feet some blisters,
Put my lipstick on so i will look sweeter.
Limit my food intake just to lose weight,
And have a body with the curve of 8.
Spread whitening lotion all over my body,
Even in the dark, he will see me.
Days and months passed, everybody seemed to notice,
Except him who is the reason for all of these.
I felt so insecure,
Why didn't he notice my love so pure?
I kept thinking why isn't this enough,
Is it really hard for him to love me back?
I've changed a lot for the better,
Please tell me, what could've gone wrong.
One day, he confronted me,
My heart beats fast, I think this is it.
He said that he loved the old me,
But everything's different now and he thinks this isn't me.
My heart began to crash to million pieces,
As tears began to roll down my face.
Why didn't he tell me when I was still so imperfect
Not now when I see myself as perfect.
