In Front Of The Mirror
Deviation Actions
Literature Text
Staring myself on the mirror, hating my appearance
Ruffled hair and acne all around, what an interference!
“I’m pretty!” “I’m really pretty!” Useless monologues
I don’t want to admit it, ending today’s current prologue
I tell myself not to look, and yet my pride is crumbling
Trying to look beautiful, yet my ugliness is stumbling
I’m not letting anyone tell me off, yet I feel like sobbing
Of how I try to cheer myself up, but I ended up failing
I’m falling down in my negative cage, full of depression
Seeing the pretty and risky ladies, sobbing out emotions
Of how I can’t be like them, despite of having a kind heart
If personalities are noticed first, then I can have a nice part
If only I can just show what’s inside, then I feel much belonged
But with how society accepts people, I’ll be pointed in the wrong
Laughing that spits out denial and despair, crushing my own pride
Throwing me away like sweeping dust off, setting myself aside
As I begin another prologue of myself, and it ends quickly
Praying that I won’t look ugly, yet it won’t work, unfortunately
Like a rejected engagement ring, sulking in my own sadness
Of how people justify looks of person filled with kindness
