I’ve never been called the beautiful one
One look at me
I’m out of their mind
Away from their sight
Even with ladylike and gentle gestures
I remain in the darkness
Nothing special
Easily forgotten
I’ve been taught
By people’s actions and words
The one thing I lack
I try to make up for in personality
But experience has taught me well
Really, it is simple
Without beauty life is difficult

I’ve never been called the beautiful one
One look at me
I’m out of their mind
Away from their sight
Even with ladylike and gentle gestures
I remain in the darkness
Nothing special
Easily forgotten
I’ve been taught
By people’s actions and words
The one thing I lack
I try to make up for in personality
But experience has taught me well
Really, it is simple
Without beauty life is difficult
