So a friend asked me this a few months ago you see
"If you had to take back one of your exes Nero, who would it be?"
So I gave it some thought, because I couldn't come up with an answer
I thought and pondered, because that question was so random.

So if I had to take one ex back into my life,
I'm not gonna say her name, but we went through lots of strife
We had our ups and downs, as all couples do
From insecurity to stupid arguments to the knife that is distance, I hope she catches this clue.

Our relationship wasn't perfect, oh no not by any means
But I find myself reminiscing and smiling about it more now it seems
I won't say her name but she knows who she is
And she'd hate me for exposing all of our personal biz
But I'll sum it all up in this one last line
You may be a mess, but I'm glad this mess is mine

When I have a daughter I will never tell her she's pretty,
because she will never be pretty.
I don't want her to walk down the halls at school and say,
"I'm pretty"
She doesn't deserve it.
My daughter will never understand the word 'pretty'
because my daughter will never be pretty.
She will never know what it means,
because everyday I will tuck my daughter in
push her hair away from her forehead
and kiss her there telling her
she is beautiful.
She is magnificent.
She is perfect because despite the lies that say
to be perfect is to be flawless
my daughter will know that being perfect is being who you truly are and not what everyone makes you out to be.
My daughter will never know what it's like to be
pretty great or
pretty cool or
pretty amazing no!
No.
My daughter will know my love for her every second of every ****** day because my daughter will be
beautiful and perfect
all on her own.
