I Think I'm Beautiful By Aggi Nkhata i think i'm beautiful, but i guess you wouldn't understand that? i think i'm beautiful when you remind me i don't look like the other cheerleaders. i think i'm beautiful when you brag about that other girls soft hair. you know.. my hair is different. and i'm proud of that. to be able to show my culture through my hair, big lips,cloths and way of speech.. now that's beautiful. i also feel beautiful when you deny me of my beauty is only skin deep, right? i heard that's what ugly people say. is that right Mr. perfect? I even think i'm beautiful when you reject me in front of your friends.. behind closed doors you're beautiful too. guess what i think i'm beautiful inside and out.. with or without you |

Giving We were inseparable
You have given me
thoughtless empty promises You have spoken truthful
lies You showed me wonders
I am lost in this
black hole You have shown me
joy We made love countless
times You have given me
nothing |

The Man of My Dreams The man of my dreams created my life, loving him is easy I don't have to think twice. He reaches me and teaches me and exercises my soul. The story behind this man has yet been told. This man of my dreams comes from above and he shows me unconditional love. He does things in my life for the good and the bad and he never leaves me even when I'm sad. I've turned my back on him several times before but I've learned from my mistakes and it wont happen no more. |
