I have wondered for so dang long
Where the heck did I go wrong
I was kind and caring until I met you
Then I changed and became so blue
I turned deceitful and
I became a liar
I look in the mirror and don’t recognize her
The girl that’s staring back at me
I wouldn’t force myself to see the monster that was in front of me
It took so long to get over the scars that were your fee
I doubted and starved myself
Always searching for your approval
But you would only shake your head and said
I needed to keep changing
But now I’ve found someone that’s right for me
Someone that loves me for free
I’ve become kind and loving again
I never want to be anyone else
Today I look at you and I feel a pang of pity
You’ve spent your whole life trying to make yourself more pretty
Yet all that you have succeeded in doing is making yourself ugly
I’m sorry that I didn’t see it earlier
Though I never stopped you from becoming brand “new”
Maybe someday
You could leave your old scars behind and become beautiful too

Feedback is greatly appreciated and I'd love to hear any ideas for new poems.
