Making Pretty

So for once my summer has been pretty boring (so boring, in fact, that I can't wait for school to start again *shocker*) and I've not really been inspired by much. As everyone knows, it's hard to write about things when you don't have an inspiration. So I figured that an old(ish) poem of mine would do.
enjoy.

Pretty girls
Will charm the pants off
Pretty boys
Will break your heart every time

Pretty people
Wearing pretty masks
Pretty things
Weren't ment to last

Fearless children
Running wild with the wind
Wishing I could be
A fearless child once again

Because if you hide in the shadows
Thats what you become
And if you tell yourself lies
In the end you will succumb

To every wish and hope and fear
To every dream you've dared hold dear
To all the blindness you can't see
And yet another long list of tragedy

You don't have to be pretty
Or fearless
Or dream untouchable things
No need for the consequences
Of what hopes saying when it sings

Just have a heart
And a will
A thrill
For the un-probable

This is what makes pretty
This is you,
Un-stopable

The big splash into the river...

I guess you have to at least admire my friend for having the guts to try this. (remember, she wasn't harmed)
