Say something nice.
Make me feel like I deserve to hear it, too.
Give me one sentence, one phrase,
that just makes my day.
Please, for God's sake!
Just say something nice...
you always used to...
but it's been years.
All it is now is "do this," "do that,"
and I think you're beautiful,
especially when you
say something nice.

I will say something nice: YOUR POEM IS OUTSTANDING!
Short, to the point, true, no fancy language. You definitely deserve it. In these few lines you perfectly captured one of the tenets of the human condition, the need to be accepted and acknowledged for who we are.
Definitely a favorite, and going up on my wall of great poems.
OH MY GOD THANK YOU! You're great! I seriously take such pride in that it means the world thank you!!!
" You are beautiful".
