A Closer Look Poem by Cabaline xxx

A Closer Look

Rating: 3.5


I feel sorry for her, that girl
who looks at me,
with such sadness in her eyes

I feel sorry for her, that girl
who looks so desperate,
for a hug or a smile

I feel sorry for her, that girl
who sees the good in everyone
apart from herself

I feel sorry for her, that girl
who is so lost
and trying to reach for help

I feel sorry for her, that girl
who can solve others problems
but never her own

I feel so sorry for her, that girl
looking back at me,
from the mirror.

Clever. Could be called 'self pity', but you did it with finesse.
