How have I managed
To surround myself with
The self-destructive

I watch them
As they look in the mirror
With their flawless faces
Reflecting their beautiful spirits

And all they see is
Necessary changes
Repulsion
Self-hatred

If you, perfection,
Can look in the mirror
And only see flaws
How can you ever manage
To look at me

How will I
Ever stand a chance
Against your critical eyes?
