Hey! pretty girl
With the hazel eyes,
Please don’t you ever cry.
I know you’re scared,
I know you’re sad,
But everything will turn out alright.
Don’t hate your body,
Don’t hate your smile,
Know that you’re beautiful
Inside and out.
I know you’re hurt,
I know you’re mad,
But you deserve better
And that’s a fact.
So please don’t you cry
Over a broken heart,
A broken promise,
A stupid guy.
You can do better,
Always know that.
And times heals everything,
Even the heart.

The author's comments:
My inspiration for this poem was my friend. She used to put herself down and felt disgusted with herself, all because of a guy. I want whoever reads this to take my words to heart and know that each and every single one of them is beautiful in their own ways. That they should never put themselves down because of something some else said. The end of a relationship is not the end of the world. You can make it. Right now you may be hurting, but it stops. You get better. You become better.
