You are beautiful. Oh come on, don’t say that
everybody who knows you can see;
so you’re not a model or a movie star – so what?
you’ll always be beautiful to me, because – well,
just because you’re you. The things you say and do,
this is what I’m trying to tell you.
Is it so hard to believe you’re special? You think
I’m talking about your face – or your shape or hair
or maybe even what you’re wearing. No!
Seriously, your bum looks fine. I don’t care
if it’s bigger than J-Lo’s, that woman
has liposuction done on her toes. Come here, sit down
and take away that frown – let me share
a little secret or two. Stop being so damn modest.
You don’t need to be tall or rich
or have a backside that could fit in a smarties tube
to be beautiful – all you need to do is smile
and just
be
you.
