What I see
I roll out of bed, walk to the bathroom.
Try to look into the mirror.
I cant look into my own eyes... Instead,
I see a nose broken and bloody.
I see a forehaed wrinkled with confusion.
I see a month that has told many lies.
I see teeth, white and glistening, holding the secrets within.
I stick my tonuge out, I see bite marks
caused by an unseen force.
I see cheeks, scarred and torn from the thorns of hell.
I see eyebrows, wet with sweat and blood.
I feel a dark prescence behind me.
I turn to lokk and I see nothing.
I look back in the mirror only to see the monster staring back at me.
Finally, when I am able to meet my own gaze.
I see eyes, hazel in color. The eyes hold no warmth or trace of happiness instead, the eyes are cold, hardened and filled with gloom.
The mirror holds a reflection that I dont want to see.
The saddest part is that the reflection is of....
me.
