    Beautifully written, I love the ending. It was somewhat unexpected, which is what truly made the poem.
    Keep it up. You have a lot of talent.

    Wow I liked this a whole
    Lot there were days when I hated
    who was looking back at my in the mirror
    I always tore myself down while others let
    me do so. I never had anyone ther
    But oneday I wiped my tears from my eyes
    and noticed I liked what I saw.
    I think this is a perfect poem for everyone.
    5/5
    Take care,

    This captures the feeling of dread so well, it conveys directly and fully to the reader, and I know that's our aim as poets at the end of the day.
    I understand how someone can "hate their own reflection" and I also realize how this affects their relationships as well.
    Great read.

    Deep. I like the transitions; how each stanza brings in a new darkness. This is a very personal poem - I don't know if it's true for you or not, but it rings true with such specific details and raw emotion. By the end, I'm still left slightly in the dark as to what terrible things occurred. Perhaps that's what you were going for? There's definitely a question left unanswered. Also, the last stanza gave me a mixed vibe (in a good way). Perhaps this poem is about an individual that can't look themselves in the mirror after a dark past. OR, two family members that shared a dark past and one member now avoids the other because the other's presence is a reminder of what has happened. I was reminded of how sometimes when parent's lose a child, they separate because being around each other makes the pain of loss more real. Anyway, as you can see, your poem made me think, and made me question, so, in that, it's a great write.
    Good work.

    This was enjoyful to read. Yet also a sad read. Knowing what it's like to feel hatred when you see your reflection it dissappoints the person on the outside and also the one within. Love your poetry. Keep writing many more.
