I look at myself until I can't stand the image

I smash the mirror unhappy

I look at the shattered pieces

Each one states a fact about my life

"You're not who you used to be"

I scream without ever making a sound

I grab basic foundation that is my life

I hurriedly and sloppily apply it

I grab the smile I wear every day

As I apply another layer I lose myself

By the time I finish I'm crying

I HATE YOU

You need fake beauty to see WHO I AM

And when I give up...

My precious angel wipes it all away

And he smiles at me

Because all he sees is the real me.
