It's creeping,

crawling all over my skin,

eats away my confidence,

this monstrosity within.

This girl in the mirror,

it's a monster it's not me,

this girl I can't stand,

it's not who I want to be.

Tear away my outer shell,

and crawl it's way inside,

change the way I operate,

the other me has died.

No amount of water,

can ever make me clean,

this dirty girl that takes the wheel,

is a souless machine.

Tie me down and beat me,

it won't make her go away,

this girl I hate so much,

is the one I choose to stay.

She whispers in my ear,

slowly change my sight,

to a blurry vision,

of what is wrong and right.

She's killing me so slowly,

I'm partially dead in a way,

this monster  I've become,

no longer kept at bay.

Breaking all my mirrors,

won't help me change the outcome,

I'll just cut myself on the pieces,

and create a bigger problem.

This murky vision of myself,

is who I want to kill,

but when I take away her life,

I'm still the one who pays the bill.
