If you look hard enough you'll see
Not a reflection of yourself
But something else, truely deep
When you look hard into a mirror
Sometimes what you can find
Is that you see into yourself
And everything locked in your mind
Be warned not to look to deep though
You may not like what you see
Like when i looked in my mirror
I hated every single thing about me!
I saw every fault i have
And how others see them too
And so i questioned my own actions
Telling myself they wouldnt do!
Now look where thats got me
In a place where i'm alone
Without any friends to help me
or even somewhere to call my home
So when you look into the mirror
Just remember what can be
When you try to hard to look into yourself..

Take a look through the mirror
If you look hard enough you'll see

I like the poem and have low self esteem myself. I have one ? Do you not use punctuation on purpose..for effect? I notice words such as thats..missing an apostrophe..so I just wondered?

Great poem, I thought it was very deep. Especially the part that talks about when you start to notice the imperfections in youurself it seems thats all others notice too. Anyway I liked it, keep up the good work.
