11) That monstrous woman

I am scared

Of that monstrous woman

In my mirror

She makes me think

That she looks beautiful

Which she isn't.

She makes me think

That she looks intelligent

Which she isn't.

She makes me think

That she looks perfect

Which she isn't.

She makes me think

That she looks successful

Which she isn't.


I am scared

Of that monstrous woman

In my mirror.

She makes me think

That she is actually me

Which I am not.


I want to break all mirrors in my house

Because they don't reflect;

They distort.
