Many people call you ugly
and make fun of you.
You absorb it
and believe it.
I can see it in your eyes
and I can feel your feelings
that you are
deeply hurt.
And who wouldn't be?
You would look
in the mirror
and see an ugly duckling
looking back at you.
Appearances
are only one half
about love.
For some,
looks are super important
in order to get
the right person.
But for others,
appearances don't matter
to them.
What they look for
is someone loving
and gentle inside.
When it comes
to love,
I hardly if ever
give importance
to appearances
because I look for
a sweet, caring person
like you.
Don't pay attention
to their insults
and rude comments.
You may be an ugly duckling
but you are a
beautiful swan
to me
because I love you.
So next time
you take a look
in the mirror,
remember this
and smile to yourself.
Because although
you are an ugly duckling
to some people,
you are a
beautiful swan
to me.
