Imperfection
May 28, 2013
never quite enough
imperfection shrouds
my body
like a thick fog
hatred flares up
within
my icy blue eyes
as i stare at
myself
in the grand mirror
my tightly fisted
hand
slams into the
delicate
image of myself
and it
shatters
pooling around my
bare feet
like a sea of broken
glass
scarlet blood runs down
my hand
and stains
my colorless skin
the mirror that
damned me
can't haunt me
anymore
