reflection


reflection, 
good intentions and flaws, 
mocking in a way, 
as I get ready for the day, 
I look at my hair, 
my body, 
imperfect flab staring back, 
as I suck in, 
my reflection doesn't change, 
my reflection, 
only sees the shell, 
my beautiful soul, 
my heart shows, 
I hate my reflection, 
I scratch the mirror, 
hoping the image will change, 
I'm deeply disappointed, 
it stays the same,
