Mirror Image

looking into the mirror
I see all of my flaws
the imperfections that haunt me
a sadness that fills me
gloomy eyes darken with anger
lips heavy laid with lies
when will all these burdens leave
the very image destroys my soul
there is nothing in the reflection
that I see brings me any joy
it only hurts me, bulge and fat
why can't it lie to me
why can't I be someone else
someone pretty and dainty
a person to be loved and admired
yes, I know lies, but sometimes
lies are better than the truth
