My mirror doesn't lie

by Maria   Dec 16, 2013


Please don't tell me I'm strong
because I am not.
I don't cry because I've been strong
for far too long,
I cry because I am weak.
And stop trying to convince me
that I actually am beautiful
I know I never was and never will be
because as much as you want to make me
feel good about myself,
you can't see the ugly parts of myself,
those that I see at 2 am
when I am alone in my room,
crying about lost loves
and broken promises.
Because as much as you want me to see
what you see,
we will always have a different view
and a different picture of me.
