the mirror on my desk lies
it cannot show me as I am
it just repeats
the same crap back at me
the shame, the hate, the inadequacy
I can't trust my mirror anymore
it speaks with the voice of the schoolyard bully
that calls my body into question
making me feel alien from my own skin
and constantly
constantly
making me feel like I want to cut my body away
because somewhere along the line
fat
became something I now suddenly am
and not something I have
-o0o-
