Holes in my Fingers
I look into the mirror
At my slightly pale figure
As my face thins
From exhaustion
Nothing about my reflection
Is correct and never will be
As told by many
As comprehended by myself
I look into the mirror and see
Something that isn't me
So tell me now
How can I love myself when I don't know
who "myself" even is
I can only see myself through
the holes in my fingers
But my skin is healing up
I keep telling myself lies
I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm fine.
But the writing on my hands
Says that I'm not
But now it's all I can see.
