[hometext] => i wrote this about people who see good and yet ugliness within themselves and don't feel pretty
[bodytext] => so beauitful
porcelin skin
scarlet lips
eyes with big bright stars
no scars
the perfect face
but she doesn't see the same
in her eyes
so plain
white skin
oddly shaped face
bumpy nose
always feels inadequate in looks
colorless eyes
oversized
too many stretch marks on her sides
large thighs
hates her face
she hides
she cries
to be beautiful to herself again!

A good heartfelt write that captures a personal pain that however deep can be realized and healed.
In my humble opinion this piece pegs a dilemma that has its resolve in discovering ones source of self esteem in the deep appreciation of the beauty of nature. I must admit I personally get more lasting good feeling by catching the sunset or a rainbow then from someone saying I look handsome in a suit. Now I don't see my face as a movie stars but I feel beautiful and I am not put off by blemishes or what others think instead of need and the result of living in deprivation I radiate abundance of good feeling which socially is the best make-up of all.
Well Done
peace

Dearest Jen~
omg hun your work is so relatable. I had alot of self esteem issues when I was younger. I still suffer from them every now and then.
Sometimes it's so difficult to love ones self.
A top notch write filled with such reality.
Well done.
love n hugs,

Sadly this poem describe's more people men as well as women who go through this. I my self included. It's a sad reality in our western culture. Your writting in so in depth and fill with indisputable logic. Very well done.

VJ,
a bizarre but all-too common self perception well captured in your words. How we make ourselves miserable with our own thoughts and deeds...
