i question myself sometimes.

Ruth Fadairo

I question myself sometimes,

When I look in the mirror and see

The absolute complete opposite

Of what my friends tell me.

 

I question myself sometimes

And ask why don’t I have a lover?

I stare at myself,

Up and down,

The flaws keep rising, one after the other.

 

I question myself sometimes

Why do I not love me for me?

Opinion of others

Imprisoned in my mind

Why do I not love me for me?

 

I question myself sometimes

What is this void in my heart that I feel?

I feel empty, unfulfilled.

For now,

Let me keep my emotions concealed.

    Good write, the reflection you see in the mirror is not what others see.
    Your emotions are you, let them out you may be surprised at how good it feels.
