She had a beautiful heart,
and a beautiful soul,
a beautiful face.
Just beautiful as a whole.
The problem was,
she cursed the reflection
in the mirror,
never seeing her perfection
that couldn't be clearer.
The hateful words
that drifted through societies air,
caused her to starve,
and swear,
and carve
her wrists.
To stick her finger
down her throat,
as the cut stings linger.
What she didn't know,
was that her fellow peers
envied her though
she soaked in tears.
She hated her self,
each and every night,
she grabbed the blade from her shelf,
promising her skin, it'll be alright.
