selfstruggles

She hates the girl in the mirror.
She wont go away.
As long as she’s still there.
Forever sad she will stay.
The never changing image.
Only grows worse with time.
Her efforts are useless.
People can be so unkind.
She was damned from the start.
She cant stop hating the reflection.
She turns her insides to acid.
There’s no positivity in this connection.
She only wishes for the impossible.
She’s so tired, it’s not fair.
She tries twice as hard to look half as good.
It’s useless, why does she care.
Let her live under a paper bag.
She’ll cut holes in it to look out.
On this skin deep world.
From which she’s been shutout.

Wow. This is definitely a poem I can relate to. Self-image is something I've struggled with for many years. The ending is powerful, because sadly it's true. We live very much in a skin deep world that leaves people feeling isolated. Great work capturing the message. Keep it up. |
