nymph

i don't want anyone to look at me.

i disgust myself.

the way i am makes me sick.

if i could change, I would.

i can't, so instead i lock myself up.

i’ll fix myself one day.

when i have more energy.

not today, probably not tomorrow either.

you called me a mythical creature, did you mean a tiyanak or a nymph?
