Looking At My Reflection.

by LossxOfxControl   May 13, 2006


As I look towards to mirror
I don’t like what I see
I hate it in fact, despise
That’s not what I want to be

I wanna’ be skinnier
I wanna’ look pretty
I can’t stand to look the way I do
It makes me feel so shitty

Every time I look in the mirror
Looking at my refection
I can see everything
I can see everything but perfection

And that’s all I want
To like how I look
To feel beautiful for once
Like the princesses’ in story books

But I know that’s a wish that impossible
No one can make me look pretty
So this will have to do
Me; ugly and feeling shitty.

    Like justina, this is sad, and powerful. But if this is based on real life, it makes it even sadder. good job on the writing, it really captivates me!
