in my world there’s no crowd,
asking myself if i’m aloud to be proud.
destined to my silence,
i find peace in my absence.
how absurd to recognize my loneliness,
taunting me behind my abrasiveness.
wishing i could try to change,
often finding myself prearranged.
i have now become my greatest fear,
a woman who’s afraid of her own mirror.
trapping myself in some sense of comfort,
not that i didn’t put forth an effort.
struggling to find my liberation,
first i’ll have to accept my creation.

Good write as a poem M. It may be difficult. Try looking in that mirror and saying 'I like you', and even 'I love you', and similar nice things!
Wow, this in my opinion, is absolutely amazing.
Wonderful self reflection insights that make me look inward and away from outer mirrors! Rhyme builds your story well
