English..


Eyes to mirror.

Mirror to face.

Face to self.

Self to hate..

Self- hate, the face, the eyes saw in the mirror or,

Hate the face, the mirror saw the eyes looking at.

Word play.

She walked with her head down sad as a girl locked away in this world alone.

Simile.

Depressingly digusted with her (almost) denying disappointment with herself.

Alliteration.

Thinking of a million ways to change, a million reasons not to smile.

Hyperbole.

" You're beautiful" they say.

In her mirror she says

"beautifully ugly"

Oxymoron.

Bang!

Onomatopoeia

Hand to mirror

mirror to shattered

shattered to pieces

all to over

bleeding to tears

laughter to crazy

Pieces of the shattered mirror she hit left her hand bleeding all over and her tears..

well....her tears turned to laughter..which turned her crazy..

word play...
