My Mind Says

They are so much prettier,

With their pearly white teeth

And long luscious hair.

You could never compare to them.

They are so much smarter,

One hundred percents on tests,

Homework always done on time.

You could never compare to them.

They are so much healthier,

Eating fruits and vegetables,

Working out on a daily basis.

You could never compare to them.

They are so much better,

Beautiful singing voices,

Scoring goals in sports from left to right.

You could never compare to them.

These are the things our minds tell us,

Your brain doesn’t know that people think of you too

Because you are pretty, smart, and healthy.

Nobody can compare to you.
