Words run through my head,
Worthless, useless, a waste of space,
Insecure of my appearance,
Ugly, fat, a hideous face.
I try to ignore the comments,
I try not to be affected by words,
But I have failed, miserably,
So I try to be like all the other girls.
Putting layers of makeup on,
Trying out a different style,
But even if I change my look,
Inside I feel disgusted and vile.
As I stare at my reflection,
A stranger looks back at me,
Tears run down my cheeks as I wonder,
Is this the me I want to be?
I shake the thought out of my head,
As I yell at my reflection,
"WHO CARES WHAT YOU THINK?!
I need to be the someone of everyone's perfection."
I don't want to be laughed at,
I don't want to be crying,
But I can't do anything about it,
So I'm left here, dying.
I'm broken and a failure,
I hush my painful screams,
As I now realize,
I lost my self esteem.
Where did all my courage go,
Why can't I just stand up for me,
What happened to the person,
I wanted to be?
