Some people are ugly on the outside

But beautiful inside

Some are beautiful on the outside

But ugly on the inside

That’s the hardest

Because that kind of ugly

You just can’t hide

    So true. Succinctly and precisely said.

  • Yes beauty is only skin deep so the memes of the past said . I agree

  • Yes, no matter how beautiful they are on the outside, their inner ugliness would always show.

  • And then there are those who are ugly either way. (Yes, of course I'm talking about myself. Who were you thinking I was talking about, lol?)
