I hate myself

And every breath that glides past my tongue

And seeps through my unwilling lips

I hate my nose

The bridge is big enough for a huge ogre to cross

And from the side view I'm the ogre crossing the bridge

Hoping maybe on the other end self esteem is waiting

I hate my hands

I don't know why my mind attacks my hands

It's like every line traced upon them is a sin

They just look

Ugly

I hate my scars

The ones that can be found almost every space on my body

Reminding me of how bad I use to feel

And how I still feel that way

But learned how to get use to the shivering winter inside of me

I hate my mind

Every disorder that races through my brain

Every sad thought I've had the courage to keep

I hate my skin

It's too translucent

My veins are too defined

Reminding me of the hateful blood they carry,

Heavily

I hate my knuckles, bruised

My elbows, and knees, rough

My lips, chapped

My eyes

My feet

My spine

My cheeks

No self esteem

No time to gain it

No dimples

No feminine voice

I hate myself
