I stare at the body in the mirror
Reflecting nothing I want
Ugly
I hate it
My body, myself
I look down, only to see more of me
Concealed by baggy shirts, hoodies, and baggy sweatpants
I cover my eyes
I run out of the room
I can't stand to stare at my body
My face
I hate it all
I'm ugly
Broken
Scarred
Deformed
Hate is all I feel
They say love yourself
But what do I have to love
I cover myself
Shirt, hoodie, pants, blanket, no light
Calm
I can never look in the mirror
Mirrors are my enemy
Pictures of me make me gag
Reflective windows make me turn my head
Flipping my hood up
Throwing a stone into the water that shows my face
The things people have said
Weird
Ugly
Fat
Stupid
Imperfect
Atrocious
Something that should not be looked at
I get it
But it hurts
Hurts more than mirrors
The words
I will never look in the mirror......
