Mirrors
Beauty, it’s what everyone wants to see..
However, when I look in the mirror, it never shows..
I’ve played with the light, put on makeup,
Tried picturing myself differently....
None of it worked, for all I saw was
Something that would never
Appeal to anyone..
The mirror laughed at me and watched me cry
I hate to look at the mirror
For I know what I will see..
A lost cause that no one will be willing to find..
