Sometimes I'm Ugly

[gladgirl]

Sometimes I look too close in the mirror
See the little lines and holes in my face
Imperfect
But the feeling goes deeper,
A reminder of the imperfection within
As if the nagging voices inside my head aren't reminder enough
Nose slightly off
Eyes too pale
Hair too dull
Everything almost
Almost isnt good enough for a perfectionist

Then sometimes I look in your eyes
They are cold to me
and all I see is the almost reflexion of myself
Not good enough for for you
Not good enough for myself

Somewhat hits home for me.

Good job gladgirl :)

I want to thank you for posting this poem. It made me realize what I had been feeling for a very long time and couldn't explain or understand. *smiles softly*
