Someday I Will Love Me

Contributed by wild_heart_of_fire on Sunday, 8th June 2003 @ 11:05:00 PM in AEST
Topic: SadPoetry



Someday I Will Love Me

Someday I’m gonna love me
Someday I hope I’ll see
What other people say they perceive
All the fantastic things about me

But right now I’m struggling
It’s real hard to look in the mirror
Cause I’m not lovin’ me right now
I just stare at my body in horror

I don’t see the beauty that people talk about
I don’t see the brilliant person that everyone says I am
All I see is revolting and hideous
All I see is one big scam

Someday I’m gonna love me
Someday I know I’ll see
All the beautiful things about me
The lovely woman I’ve come to be

But flippin’ through these magazines
It’s real hard to feel adequate
I think I need a smaller size in jeans
I think I need another diet

God, I wish I were beautiful
Like everyone thinks I am
All I want is to be beautiful
And love me for who I am

Someday I will love me
I’ll throw away the magazines
I’ll realize that they aren’t real
And I’ll love me for me.

True beauty comes from within, the outer layer is just a wrapper, what good is a wrapper when it is hallow? Do we keep the wrapping paper and throw the present away? You are what you want to be, believe in yourself. This was a good write. You have talent.

I feel the same way 'cept I'm a guy. A little pointer for you... no matter how bad u feel look in a mirror and say 'I look hot' or good or something like that. Loved this poem by the way.

Great poem. I get like this sometimes. I tend to listen to Christina Aguilera's song 'Beautiful' when I feel like this and it makes me feel better. I can relate.

the truth of the matter is
beauty is in the beholder of the eyes
but even more is to rise above the tabloids
the standards set by superficial methods
are of no significance what matters is you see this all
and that is where the beauty is.
