Looking in the mirror,
I see everything about me that I want to change.

I see the freckles covering my face,
My brunette hair that I wish was as shiny as hers.
I see how my smile is slightly uneven,
And I see my eyes.

My eyes,
The eyes that everyone says are so beautiful.
Bright blueish green with a dark fleck of deep brown.
But the way I see them,
They are the only window into my soul,
The only way someone can truly see how much I'm suffering. 

I see all the flaws,
My freckles,
My hair,
My smile
...My eyes.

And I wonder,
Will anyone every love me?
Love this?
