You're beautiful

I once met this girl

She's pretty as could be

I told her she was beautiful

But she didn't believe me

Frustration consumed me

How could she not see

Despite the perfection I perceive

She sees inadequacy

See society has taught her

To hate her the skin she's in

To compare herself to billboards

To starve util she's thin

But even if she made it

Ignored her hunger pain

Would she finally feel at peace

Or would her sorrow remain

Rejection like an infection

Breeding victims of disaffection

So pardon my interjection

But we must go a new direction

This isn't natural selection

Rather a warped projection

Women don't need your objection

They deserve uninfluenced introspection

I once met this girl

She's as pretty as could be

I told her she was beautiful

But she didn't believe me

Frustration consumed me

How could she not see

Despite the perfection I perceive

She sees inadequacy

Shallow words from shallow guys

Curse pretty girls with tainted eyes

Forced to believe their twisted lies

In every mirror inside she dies

She cannot feel the love I've sent

Despite my honest heart's intent

I drown her in these compliments

Yet somehow she still circumvents

Forget the American dream

It will destroy your self-esteem

Happy lives need no extreme

Beauty isn't what they deem

You are perfect to the seam

Don't deny you love ice cream

If your proud lets hear your scream

As we burn their magazines

I once met this girl

She's as pretty as could be

I told her she was beautiful

But she didn't believe me

Frustration consumed me

How could she not see

Despite the perfection I perceive

She sees inadequacy

All that truly matters

Are those who truly care

The opinions of the masses

Neither relevant or fair

So believe what I say

And find happiness once more

You're beautiful, your perfect

Of that you can be sure

I once met this girl

She's pretty as could be

I told her she was beautiful

But she didn't believe me

Frustration consumed me

How could she not see

Despite the perfection I perceive

She sees inadequacy

What she doesn't realize

A point she surely missed

If you're a truly kind person

Ugliness does not exist

You can throw away your makeup

This you should not doubt

If you are beautiful within

You are beautiful without
