Mirror On The Wall

In the mirror

I see me

The same old face

That I everyday see

I tried a million things

But nothing ever worked

Those tiny white pimples

They found my face to lurk

I sigh and I think that I hate me

But when I think more, that's not true

Is my face really a good reason?

A reason to make me feel blue?

I get up and smile at my reflection

I'm totally in love with what I see

And do you know the reason for that?

That's because I'm in love with me!

Author's Note

Do tell me how you liked it!

I don't know how you see this one, but it does have a very humorous side to it. I wrote it after using a herbal face pack for the first time, and not finding much of a difference on my face. But then I realized that I'm happy with what I am!

I love that part(: I can kind of relate to this.. The whole insecure teenager thing, I totally know how it feels. I wish I could be as confident on myself as you were at the end of the poem though. Great job with this!

I can so relate to this, I'm sure in some way we call can we are not perfect and sometimes we realize it more than others. But at the end of the day this was the person you were given to be so we need to love what we see in our refection.
:) great write

Nice!

[Dark Butterfly]

love it, sometimes in the morning i look in the mirror and hate myself then other times i look and love myself, i guess it all just depends on how aware you are of what you really look like not what you think you look like

I like the surprise ending to the poem. I like the use of the mirror to make your point. I believe we need to like our reflection. Thank you for sharing the excellent poem.
