Monster in the mirror

This is a poem I wrote when I was in therapy one day

I wake up every morning then look in the mirror
When I looked I didn't see me in the mirror
The monster decided to show his ugly face
He was angry, sad, lonely
Everything I never want to feel
That monster was me
The ugly gave with the negative thoughts
I was me on the outside
But a monster on the inside
I knew who I was and endured it
I wanted to change but this is who I was
I was born this way......
A girl in the world
But a monster in the mirror

Please do not comment on how depressing it sounds. I was in a dark corner of my mind at that moment and I just thought it came out very reflective (no pun intended) so I decided to share it.
