be cautious of
i think in poems
when i see you
four lines stanzas that all begin in
how beautiful you are…
and how cliché that is
in my metaphors
Wanna know how many dudes I’ve banged?
well sit down take a biopsy of
the inner walls of my blood pumper my blood thumper wait
what do you see? oh I know
little tiny letters that read
“we’re sorry for the…”

I have to avoid mirrors.. It's not that i want to, its just that i legitimately have to because if i dont the only thing ill be able to think about is that sinking feeling of "if this is what i see, everyone else sees it too".
I'm that brown eyed beauty
hailing from the ground in
which you threw me.
Singing all the blues of
nothing coming through me.

and you tell me when you die
you want to be a star
and watch over those you care for,
I look down and laugh a little.

But leave feeling queasy in both my head and my legs.
This is such an innoent and frequented place
But all people suffer, unless made of lace
If I could change one thing
it would be the way people see themselves.
Short
Fat
Skinny
Tall
That's all anyone ever sees.
But you know what's also there?
How their eyes light up
I would change myself
my hair, my face, my life-
Or try to at least

when perfection is warped and pretend.
The clown mirror hangs, glaring at me
Taunting me,
He came at me with pain, uttering my name
If only to remind, that our names were the same
I couldn’t look up, towards such disdain
For it was me in that mirror, that I wanted to change
I would change your perception,
My perception,
I would change the perception of the world,
I would throw out all the bad:
The diet pills, the steroids, the magical items that don't work,
Mirror mirror on the wall,
you make these girls feel very small.
Megan Fox and Brittany Snow
the faces we all love and know.
Everyone loves a size two,
how come that isn't you?
