She was pretty sometimes.
If you saw her in passing, or out of the corner of your eye.
But look at her face too long and it would fade away.
You would notice her cracked lips, the bump on her nose,
The gap in between her teeth, and hair in places it shouldn’t be.
Talk to her to long and you see the metal on her teeth,
The way she stumbled over words and the smell of her breathe.
But listen to her too long. Really listen.
You’ll find out she loves children, and can think for herself.
She’s always prepared for trouble, and will fight if you hurt her loved ones.
That she’s always looking for someone just as lonely as she is.
Listen to her too long and you don’t notice what she looks like.
Too bad no one ever listens, maybe then someone could tell her
She always was pretty.
Haha, feel free to completely ignore my attempt at free hand :D
