Reflections
April 9, 2015
I hear things
these things…
things that i hate
but can’t seem to get away from
i hear thoughts
these thoughts..
thoughts so ineluctable
“you’re ugly”
“you’re fat”
“ewww”
coming from this bully
go away
go away please
and hurry
because you’re breaking me
i’m crumbling
into a million peices
now every part of me is fumbling...
down
what’s down there?
black is all i see
...probably my own reflection,
my bully staring back at me
