A Shattered Mirror

I look at myself I don't feel worthy Worthless At times I'm breathless I try to move forward And then I see myself looking in A Shattered Mirror Depression takes over Sadness has become my life I try daily to better me But the fear of judgment Whispers, "YOU CAN'T" I'm so emotionally broken So now I realize I broke the mirror I stare, while I figure out How to piece it all back together The pieces are falling One at a time Who can replace me now Who cares to put me back together I have become A Shattered Mirror Reflections Protection I'm bent over with sorrow Leaning with struggles Turned with misery Filled with insecurities Finally, I have became just that A shattered Mirror That will one day stare back Ask me why? Why, wasn't I A better woman A stronger woman A worthy woman You believe in you And only you know you No one can break me down When I realized A mirror has no place here Now it will be shattered Because I broke it With all my positivity.
