The Girl in the Mirror

by ImaLittleLonely   Aug 1, 2012


I wake up about half past noon,
Knowing where I'll be standing soon.
I'm up so late it's not right,
I stayed up to long crying last night.

I walk down the hall,
twards the bathroom, oh-so-small.
I would have to see it eventually,
that mirror. That stupid... mirror.

I'm at the bathroom door.
I open it...and see the horrid girl staring at me in the mirror.
That horrid girl...
She tells me this.

You're so ugly!
You're skin is dreadful!
You're body shape in weird!
You're lips are so thin!

the thoughts keep moving...
You;re eyes... so small!
You are to tall!
You aren't perfect...not at all!

I'm at my breaking point.
Yea...I feel pretty sometimes...
but most of the time...the girl looking back at me...
In that mirror...

in that mirror in that bathroom so small...
Just makes my mind go blank.
That girl in the mirror...
is me.

    Great poem, but it was also sad.
    Nobody shouldn't say that about themself,
    I think everyone is beautiful, no matter what.
    But overall it was a great poem :)

    It is a good poem, the content is sad because that girl in the mirror makes you feel not pretty.
    But every girl is pretty. it's just that insecurities come but we have to see pass them and feel comfortable with whom we are.

    I like it, it's well written. It has repetition but I felt that it worked. 5/5
