Beautiful - Lisa Howard

Poor Jenny

Sweet Jenny

Such a pretty face but

How you eat Jenny

I swear there’s not a man you couldn’t date if you lose some weight

They think I’m sort of pretty

Kind of sexy

Almost easy on the eye

Sort of

Kind of

Almost

Somewhat nearly

Why not beautiful?

I am kind

Always kind

They say that only kindness matters in the end

In the end

Well when the hell is that

So what I’m frickin fat

Why won’t someone say

Hey

You are beautiful

Through and through

You are beautiful

Yes I mean you

Truly beautiful

I agree

She is beautiful

Yes I mean

They are blind

Cruel and blind

I face this kind of blindness almost everyday

Everyday

I hear somebody laugh

Some perfect blonde giraffe

Let me hear it now

Wow

You are beautiful

Through and through

You are beautiful

Yes I mean you

Truly beautiful

I agree

She is beautiful

They say if you believe in something

That makes it true

I am

(Jenny, sorry to barge in. Your Mom sent me to get you)

I’m ready

(And don’t you look nice)
