I'm not the kind of beautiful
Where you can just look at me and say
"Wow"
I'm the kind of beautiful where
I watch sweet movies and brush away tears
Than attempt to write sappy poetry
I sing as long as my lungs will allow
When nobody is home
Than quietly hum my favorite tune all day
I get completely absorbed in books
Than feel shattered when it all ends
I'll never abandon a friend
But I'll understand if you abandon me
I'm the kind of beautiful that stays up late
To watch my favorite show on the history channel
And eat my chocolate bunny
I'll get dressed and notice my jeans are getting tighter
Than cry while singing my favorite song to cheer me up
I'm the kind of beautiful that
Bites my nails to nubs because I get anxiety
And steps out of your way in the hallways
I'm the kind of beautiful
That's not exactly gorgeous
But beautiful
