if I ask do you think I'm pretty? you say, of course of course, dear, you're beautiful and you act so surprised that I could even think it that I could ever wonder but I know -- I know that you're lying. you're lying to me. you think I'm ugly and mean and stupid and you wish hard that you could escape. but you're just a prisoner just like me and we always brush against each other in the hall and shrink away because there's nothing we can do there's nothing but being lonely and being stuck either of us thinking about how the other's so ugly

About this poem:
Yep. Lengthy. Wordsy. Completely average and unexceptional. I love it.
I'm so done. Does anyone else get stupid at 4 in the morning? :)
sounds like a relationship in need of ... something.

Goodguy -- it is a relationship that lacks ... everything that defines a functional relationship.

Hi, 19chellebelle90, Yes, two people locked in as cell-mates of a relationship is true loneliness; whereas, a good relationship leaves someone feeling, not just hearing, they are beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
