Down

Dorothy J Garcia 1976 (Clark AFB)

I wasn't meant for you
I'm always down and blue
You're better off with someone better
I'm not what you want down to the letter
What I think doesn't matter to you what so ever
Since day one up until today I feel like I'm alone forever
Being ugly is something I've dealt with all of my life
I thought that was over with when I became your wife
I was so wrong about that
I'm still ugly and now fat
I've never been your one true love
Because if I was you would've treated me like a beautiful white dove
But I do know who truly Loves me
And I know it was definitely meant to be
It's my 5 Beautiful Miracles that I also Love Unconditionally!
