Why is it that every time I look in the mirror I see myself

I want to see someone else.

I don't want to see my curly brown hair and my ugly

Freckled face.

I want to see any other color of hair thats straight.

I want to see a perfect tan face with hardly any freckles.

I don't want to see me.

I want to have lips as red as strawberries.

And skin as soft as a blanket yet i'm still stuck with my

Kind of pink lips and my pimple filled face.

I look at myself and try to imagine a beautiful version.

But as tight as I shut my eyes it doesn't work

I just see an obis of darkness.

I want to be enough.

I  want to look in the mirror and say hey I look good today.

But I can't.

Nobody can.

Even if we try to see ourselves as perfect as we are

It just doesn't work. We still think we are ugly

And sure I have my flaws but I am beautiful inside and out.

We are all perfect in our own ways.
