The Mirror (Free verse) by berdabear

My strength betrays me, weakness prevails and so I face another day I can't look in the mirror I HATE her! Despise what she has become I've tried to change her, make her what she was A shadow Her eyes are hollow, soul empty I HATE her! If she were stronger she'd pull the trigger but her weakness haunts me torments my every moment and I scream Leave me!! I HATE her! She stares back at me empty stare, cold and hateful She mocks my weakness I'd pull the trigger and she'd be gone But my strength betrays me and so I face another day.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, I only have fleeting moments of self hatred. Maybe its hormones maybe to much whisky sometimes. I find that writing about it helps to relieve the stress and I usualy feel much better. Kinda like lancing the wound to let the poison spill out so that it heals faster.
