BARBIE

by Samantha Lowe - Scorpio

I catch your eye every time I walk into a room
The guys drool as they watch me
The girls try to get tips on getting attention
I act as if I care
As if I’m happy
Leading the perfect life
Always smiling
Always laughing
I come home to my room
Endless phone calls from admirers
Seeking for a date
For a way of getting me into their car
Into their hands
Mouths
Them
Telling me that I have the perfect body
Perfect smile
Perfect…
Life
Time for bed
To drown my tears in the pillow
Bury my dreams in the stars
Into the loneliness of my room
I cry because no one bothers to get to know me
I cry because I’m used
I cry
Because I’m alone.

Reason for writing:

    I feel like my boyfriend right now is using me. He never calls, never spends time with me. And when we do see eachother, he just wants to fool around. All my friends can't see why i don't just get with the many guys that practically drool over me at the mall, movies, etc... but when it comes down to it, they only seem to like me because of my looks. It sucks.
