Everyone tells me that I'm amazing!

Everyone tells me that I am talented.

Everyone tells me that I am funny and have a good sense of humor.

If everyone is telling me these things, why don't I seen any of this. 

I see useless, waste of space

They say I'm pretty

I don't see it

They say go look in the mirror you will love what you see

But in all honesty i can't stand looking in the mirror.

I am very self concious about my looks

I don't see what everyone else sees.

Why?
