camera shy

by RunningWithScissors

for once
i’d wish i could look at myself
in pictures and be proud
in mirrors and feel gorgeous, or at least a step up from hideous
in others and see confidence
in me, myself, and know..

pick up the blade and toss the medicine.
when shadows are your best friend,
oh everyone looks better in the dark,,
and mirrors are your own worst enemy
im in agony from seeing that face in reflected back
day after day,, why am i in your eyes?
back back to an empty drowning pool
pull me under
i dont wanna see her ever again
i dont wanna see myself ever again
i dont ever, ever wanna see another monster
