what you see matters to me

i have this thing where i refuse to look at any mirrors during the night but it's slowly crept up on daylight hours...guess i realized that there isn't much to look at.
i hate my hair.
i hate my skin.
i hate my eyebrows.
i hate my teeth.
i hate my lips.
i hate my nose.
i hate that my eyes notice the smallest imperfections.
i hate that my eyes water when i look at my reflection.
i hate that i am not comfortable with what i see.

Honestly, i can't remember the last time i looked at myself in a mirror.

i always look tired.
i always look like me.

  1. i hated looking at mirrors too. i thought something horrible would be there, like a ghost or the devil. but then i'd look and only see me. and even then, i hated that too >:/

  2. You're beautiful Leslie, seriously. Don't even begin to think about your imperfections. I have them, Queez Elizabeth has them, and your neighbor has them. Seriously.
