Mirror
Why can't I be,
Happy?
I've been to hell and back so many times,
The ferry man gives me frequent flier miles!
I should be grateful,
Instead I'm regretful.
I'm tired,
I want to sleep.
But these bags are screaming bloody murder,
Mind went 0-200 in 5 seconds.
Narrator won't fucking shut up,
I don't need you anymore!
I looked into the mirror,
I saw a faceless being.
Disgusted,
I smashed the mirror.
Hands covered in blood,
I wept.

The thoughts never cease. That first stanza is great. It seems that the first stanza is the ending; maybe that’s just me though. I scream and get mad and then cry. I love the poem, neat format, and perfect length too.

Yeah, it does seem that way, doesn't it? I'll change that. I just free wrote this piece, liked it, then posted it.
Thank you for saying such nice things.
