Mirror

by Rosamay   Feb 10, 2022


Mirror, mirror,
what do you seek?

The reflection that looks
back at me,
appalled by the sight
that I seek.

My thin skin,
stretching, marks showing,
scars that buries deep within my skin,

Mirror, why must you be
so cruel?

My eyes,
blackened by the lack
of sleep.

My hair in a ratted mess,
from the lack of motivation to keep
it looking pretty.

Mirror, why must I seek
validation in my reflection?

Eating less,
losing appetite
each moment
that passes.

Looking back
at my reflection,,
I see a girl that has lost her way.

Mirror,
Am I enough?
