Question:Lament
Why didn't God make me pretty?
Look at the advantages it brings.
Men dive off bridges and buildings
To bring you chocolate and things.

Life is definitely easier
If you're the owner of beautiful eyes
And the world will bend over backwards
For a pair of athletic brown thighs.

Instead, I got saddled with glasses
A little moustache and buck teeth.
And men have no interest in finding
The beautiful me underneath!

(Actually, I wasn't that bad looking in my youth so this is not actually about me - it's for all those girls who get passed by in the mating game)
ps - chocolate reference is
-all because the lady loves Milk Tray

You made me smile!
You wrote in a comical yet sad way. And to write piece as this one needs talent. Congratulations and welcome to yahoo! poem!
Keep writing. I'm waiting for your next one.

I love it. I think heavier woman have a heart that can love just as deeply as a slender woman.

Honestly, I dont think its all that hot. Nothing really interesting about it. Sorry.

i love it for it speaks a wealth of experience, nicely interwoven in convoluted emotions of youth... i think the poem is extremely light-hearted and i respect the poetic attempt narrating a personal insights

see this poetry fantastic but it has reality

it made me smile - especially the disclaimer at the end which wasn't part lof the poem!! Have you any more?

Very cute and funny in an "isn't-that-the-truth" kind of way.

It's good, it's got a good flow to it and rhymes easily.

i don't really like it because that is insulating me because i am beautiful and a singer.
