so I can't get what I want

And what I want is to be pretty.
I know it's shallow and superficial
But I don't want to be a model
Or on the cover of magazines
Or really popular because of it.
I want to be ordinary but breathtaking.
I remember once that I saw a woman at the theatre , and I looked at her and was speechless. She was not extravagantly dressed or over loaded in make up and neither did she have incredibly skimpy clothes on
But I was literally breathless at her beauty. And I've never forgotten her.
Or that glimpse of her.

That is what I want.
I want to be a normal person who has an impact on others because of my pure beauty.

but the world is not a wish granting factory
so I can't get what I want
The italics is a true story.
And because I can't get what I want
I'm stuckΒ Β being
Repulsive
Horrifying
Disgusting
Ugly
Unattractive
