I stare blankly into the mirror
That harsh look upon my face
Examining every part of me
And no part is good enough
I stare harshly in to my eyes
Ice blue staring back at me
Why am I not better?
I try to turn away
Only to remember what was in the mirror
The tears trace that fatty face
Everything becomes a blur
Trying to hide from the world
My head filled with malicious comments
Said to me, barked at me, screamed at me
Each one filled with hate
I try to focus on something positive
Each time negativity washes it away
I sob until I can no more
Then I compose myself
And head for the world
Every mirror I see avoided
Or a quick look at my hair
They can never know
Of my insecurities alone
