I don’t have a cute laugh Or an attractive voice I’m not skinny Or tall Or pretty My feet are big As is my nose I’m not Miss America Or the girl next door I’m not the cute awkward weird girl I wish I was though I wish I was skinny And tall And pretty I wish my feet were dainty And my nose small and pert I wish my voice was sultry And my laugh adorable But that's all they are: Wishes

Wishes
You’ll never know My thoughts hardly stray from you and My need for you to be near. You’ll never know I notice how perfectly your hand fits on my hip, Your arm around my waist and My head on your chest. You’ll never know I see beauty in every movement you make, Whether you are stretching, Cooking Or pulling me close. You’ll never know How my eye slides away from other men. How in my mind, You are perfect for me. You’ll never know My fear that someone may come along that, In some way, fulfills every trait of your perfect woman. You’ll never know The amount of love I feel for you is more than I can express And more than you thought possible. Because of fear that you might not believe me, You’ll never know.

If You Knew
Late at night is when I think And try to I clear my head I often stay awake all night Just laying in my bed As soon as I get comfy Thoughts start racing in I start to question everything and regret my every sin At first the thoughts are gentle Like what will I do tomorrow But as time crawls by; they escalate Till I'm drowning in my sorrow I think of all my failures Every detail of what I did wrong After hours of reliving pain I convince myself I don't belong I suddenly feel isolated and like the silence will never end I feel like I will never escape There's too much I just can't mend I feel overpowered and worthless Like I'll never do anything right I hide till the world fades away And I'm awoken by the light I realize a new day has come It's time to put on a brave face I put those negative thoughts away Until I return to this place
