I look at the reflection in the mirror and I gasp,what the hell?Who is this person?

I remember seeing a girl with perfect thick dark brown bushy hair,perfect shaped eyebrows and a smile that could light up a city.Now all I see is dark bags under my eyes,one eyebrow gone and the other eyebrow,well..partially there.

Oh well...

Life I guess?

No!This isn't how life is suppose to treat people,I don't want to hide behind a damn fringe everyday of my fucking life and pretend that i'm okay when i'm really not.The question I ask myself is,why me?why does god want to take away all my hair and both my eyebrows?

Agh.

My questions remain unanswered.

Alopecia Areata: A sickness that involves hair loss due to stress.

I am not stressed...maybe its because of my vast childhood.

Watching my dad abuse my mum,hearing his cursing words pierce the hearts of my two lovely siblings or maybe it was how my stepdad treated me.Yeah no one knows about that right? Because no one would ever believe a 'kid'.

"Maleah honey,come down for brekkies I made your favourite!Bacon and eggs with fried mushrooms! Screamed my mum,Annie.

I smiled,my mum is absolutely amazing.

"Coming mum!"

I quickly put my thin hair in a so called messy bun,grabbed my phone and went downstairs to where the aroma of a marvellous smell of bacon and eggs awaits me.

"Someone looks real ugly today" said my brother,Mike.

I love this douchebag,we insult each other every chance we get.

"Geez smell that Mike?Smells like someone didn't brush their teeth yet you faggot!" I burst out laughing as did Mike.Apart from how I feel on the inside,Mike brings out the humour in me.

My sister,Kim,moved away to New Jersey with her boyfriend Luke.I really miss her,home isn't the same without her.She's my other half and it broke me in about a thousand pieces when she told us she's moving.Like no Kim,I fucking need you!

But I guess that as we get older we have to make a living for ourselves and become something.

Why can't we just stay at home for the rest of our lives!

Sigh.
