Look at You

Look at you,

with your perfect hair.

Always worried what cloths to wear.



Smiling at every guy you see,

and have the right to critisize me.



Every teacher depends on you,

your goal in life,

is to be cool.



If each of your friends had lives of their own,

you'd be standing there all alone.



You worry about what people think of you.

You don't have your own oppinion,

cuz you'd be a fool.



Tryin to catch up with everyone else,

trying real hard not to be your self.



Never speak unless spoken to,

only speak to people, who are good enough for you.



You stand with all your popular friends.

Never knowing what will become of you in the end.



You try to put on your lipgloss so perfectly,

and always have a brush right by you.



Other peoples opinions leave you in total terror....

God, I hate looking in the mirror.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I think the last line says it all. But I don't want you to think that I meant the author was talking about someone else, and then looks at her own reflection and hates it..i want you to see that she is talking to herself in the mirror.
