a different side of me

By Nesfurata

me

i look in the mirror and i hate what i see
i wish i didnt have to look like me
i hate my body more and more each day
i cannot believe what others say
of my beauty people tell lie after lie
people tell me im pretty as if i cannot see
how all you people really look at me
i hate how even my huge clothes dont fit right
i wish i could just fucking stay out of sight
these scars on my body i cannot hide
so i simply do not go outside
people try to comfort me as if I cannot see
the way that everybody really looks at me
your look of disgust you cannot deny
i have a fucking mirror so stop trying to lie.

    Thank all of you so much for your comments. And, I wrote this poem a couple years ago and recently decided to post it. I don't feel the same way now as I did then :)
