Self Hate

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.
