Poems

Not My Reflection
When I look in the mirror I don't see my reflection
I see slabs of fat thrown together
A face painted with acne
I see a person who is the exact opposite of beautiful in the eyes of the world
Someone who struggles to leave the bedroom she knows what people really think of her

When I look in the mirror I don't see my reflection
I see a strong woman who has overcome so much
A woman who has redefined beauty as whatever the hell she wants it to be
When I look in the mirror, I see me
