Snip snip snipping
Standing in the mirror cutting away the hair just incase there’s a way to make my face less his face more my own
I consider shaving my head
No one would notice
The mirror whispers
Why is everything you do a cry for help?
Writing, hair cutting, talking,
Everything.
Why don’t you just say what you need
You do know what you need don’t you?
You’re human just say what you need
You don’t know what you need.
It used to be okay
It’s not anymore you’re a grown adult; tell people what you need stop hinting that you need help and
I blink in the mirror
It says such cruel things with all the optimism of a glass wall
With a foil back
To make it reflect
It doesn’t know what happens when you ask for what you need
It’s better to forget
Needing anything
And snip
Away
The similarities
