Mirror

Have I tricked myself in feeling justified..
Pacifying the inner critic for the moment.
Heard her most of Friday evening ..chattering away about how I failed...
What I could have, should have done. Why I wasn't good enough...same rhetoric
Told her to shut up but she had already done her damage. I heard her.

Why cant I see the truth? Why cant I just accept?
Move forward, one step back...punishing myself for what cant be taken back.

My beauty tries to emerge through the mirror...so close...so ...so...close.

Pushing through..my heart bleeds..then mends a little...I see the tears of blood fall gently to the ground..
A flower pushes through with each tear..eyes in the mirror...I see myself.
