My body was filled with heaviness, staring at myself in the mirror. I stood there, frozen in the dark, unable to cry, and unable to feel. My eyes carried themselves down the mirror to my body. Even though my stomach was screaming, silence was the only thing I could hear. Sometimes I stood there for hours, stuck in time, my mind numb and empty. The pain, the rejection, the hate filled my empty head like a tsunami rushing in.
