In The Mirror
Red eyes glowing with just a hint of pain, maybe even sadness.
A crooked grin that nevers shows teeth.
What's the point in smiling?
A sickly thin shape, no beautiful curves.
What's the point in eating?
A heart blackened out by the evils of hatred.
What's the point in caring?
An empty shell that's called a body, it's supposed to hold a soul.
A lifeless corpse staring right at me.
I put the mirror down.
That's enough for today.
A crooked grin that nevers shows teeth.
