I styled my Hair

I painted my nails

and I checked my wieght on the scale

In digital letters

Because I wasn't pretty enough

To make him want me

But then I let out a gasp

And I saw him

Him?

My ex?

When I looked in the mirror

it wasn't my reflection I saw

But it was the one I hated at most

My ex.

Or was my eyes playing tricks on me?

My heart screamed

and my eyes were blinded my fury and tears

I plicked up my flat iron and threw it at the mirror

I saw glass shatter everywhere

and my face was masked with terror

What just happened?

What did I do?

And I couldn't take it anymore

so then I was out the door
