[bodytext] => things in this world they seem too good to be true
how the hell did i end up with you?
how did i all of a sudden become
what you call beautiful, surround and succumb
why when i look in the mirror i see not a thing
when i open my mouth why cant i sing?
why when you tell me that i am so great
i turn my head in denial for myself i hate
why is it so hard for me to believe
all of these things that you tell me
you say that i'm worth it and without a doubt
i'm beautiful inside and out
staring at my reflection i cannot see
any of these things that you describe to me
follow my heart, you say, your beauty is sure
with an angelic face and a soul so pure
but even with you with your honesty dutiful
i just cant believe that i am beautiful

| u know... this is a good write however my gf is very much like u...
i tell her my every feeling that i can... she is by far the ebst thing in my life... but she just doesnt seem to want to believe me and it kills me to look at her when i say "i love u beauiful" and she disagrees... trust me... u r very loved or u wouldn't be told any of the things... maybe u dont think it... but obviously someone knows it and u just need to accept that there are people out there that love u with all their heart, people that would die for you in a heartbeat....

Hi Jennie. Well, fear not, if you only get 10 comments, I will come back and comment 5 more times, so you will go over the top.
About your poem: Right from the start of my time on YPDC, I knew there was something special about you. Defining it is not easy, but suffice it to say, you are definitely like a daughter to me. As far as beauty inside, I see it, too --- it's no mystery to me. Having seen your pic (previously on your site), you are certainly an attractive enough gal that should have had no trouble snagging a bf --- which you did. The fact that it took so long, well that part is a mystery :)
Trust your bf on this one. I know there have been times when things looked bleak, but that has never been a reflection on you (rather you were a victim of circumstance). You deserve this happiness and you shouldn't second guess. My advice to you is to look in the mirror and see what he sees, a wonderful young woman that gladdens his heart.
Jaycee
PS - just let me know if you need more comments ;)

| Wow you ask for a comment but I’d have to be crazy not to comment on this write. It was written so flawless and with so much emotion and pain. This write is beautiful so to me your heart and mind is beautiful and I thank you for your pain and thoughts unleashed for all of us to read. You seem like such a awesome person and I’m glad you’re here to post these writes and comment on mine. Keep your head up girl and take my advice you are beautiful for it’s the heart I see. Your friend….Steve |

| I think about how far you have come in such a short time. Your poems then and now, like you have shed the cocoon of sadness and the butterfly of joy flies free. I don't think, however, that it "was all of a sudden." Everything about you was already in place, you just needed to be able to see that, to let others see it. You shine in a world that needs your light! |

| On your Xanga, you reposted a poem that you posted here on YPDC, your If Death Is Upon Us [www.your-poetry.com]. A poem that when I read it made me misty eyes, because at that time death was upon me. When I needed support and friendship and concern, you were there. That, my friend, is beautiful. |

| Okay, okay, so I may have posted my fair share. But these are all topical comments that I have been making. What is beautiful, anyway? Checking the online dictionary it says something about possessing beauty - a definition that build on itself, not helpful - and pleasing to the sight or the mind. Ask yourself do you meet this criteria? Your bf says so on both counts. Your xanga said that somone things you are hot. Steve, in these comments, mentions that you show your inner beauty. Forget my opinion, you can take these very relevant examples. Everything suggests that you meet the criteria quite well. And, that. my friend makes 11... |
