I hate how i look,
I hate how i feel,
I can't stand life anymore.
The person staring back at me...
I cannot be this person...
I don't even regognize myself.
What happened to me?!
Is this me?
THIS HAS TO BE A DREAM!
This can't be the real me..
I'm ugly and so thin!
But the image staring back...
It shows me that i am.
I have to look away,
The very sight makes me ill.
This is what the media's done to me.
i wanted so much for boys to like me.
i changed everything!
Its too late for me isn't it?
i can't go back to way things were...
I can't even stand looking at my own reflection...

it was a good poem and I love seeing the point of views of others peoples about a picture. It didn't really flow though. I'm looking for a person with an artist in their heart! sorry. But keep it up, better luck next time, thanks for entering.

I feel this way a lot. Your poem gives you an idea of how broken and hurting this woman is. Good luck in the competition!
