His lips pull into a wretched smile
That used to make me follow suit
But as it forms around hurtful words
I know that, in truth,
He was always ugly
And I was just entertainment
He'd never see me equally
And I'd never be able to make him
He mocks all I can't change
And discourages all that I do
And I've not enough self-confidence
To counter the words he threw
How did I miss how hideous
This child of a boy could be?
As now, he's set the standard
Of my definition of ugly
