This poem, well more like a free write, was inspired by the song Amazing by Bruno Mars   *Oh & this is a true story.Enjoy. :)





I hear the words as I drive in my car.

My thoughts take over my body as I

feel the sting begin in my eyes and

my face gets red hot. I start thinking

about my life and those lyrics.

When was I going find someone

to tell me that I'm amazing? When was

I going to find someone to tell me that

I'm beautiful JUST the way I am?

That they would never change anything

about me because I am the epitome of perfect

in their eyes.

As I pull into my driveway, I turn off the car

and cry softly. The silence made my sniffles

sound deafening. I couldn't hear myself

breathe, I thought I stopped.  I took

my time, thinking about my past, present,

and future. I've been so stuck on finding the

"one" that I haven't found myself.

I immediately stopped crying because

I realized I have found someone to tell

me all of those things, and she was

staring at me in the rear view mirror.

                            **ME.
