Reflecting You
By Emily / April 10, 2025 / No Comments / My Poetry, Personal Collective Writings Trove
I just want to be alone
So when I look in the mirror
I know that’s not what reflects in your perfect eyes
A person like me has no business being seen
Especially with a guy like you
Wearing all of my imperfections
Mistakes
Pains
Defeat
All over my loose, wrinkling skin
It’s funny
I prayed for a man like you
Begged for you to love me
And I cant believe it to be true
Because I am not as beautiful as you
I am cRuMbLiNg…

Needing YOU… breathing you in…
Wishing I could be one of your kind
So I could fulfill your every
Wish upon a star
I want to be enough for you
So you never lose sight of me
Oh, to be the only one you see
Please…
I am begging you to love me… to see me
Until the end of time
