Ugly.

As much as I try to put on a good "face," I feel ugly.


Horrid. Disgusting. Hideous.


My tear stained face, a mess. A face unwanted. Unloved. Unneeded. Unnecessary.


My watery eyes ready to spill their bounty at any moment.


The crying.


There is something so humbling about sorrow with a stranger. Someone who looks right past you.


A person who sees your sadness and looks through you. Someone who can't be bothered. Who is annoyed at your very presence, at your depression, your misery, your loss.


I am pathetic.


Someone who doesn't want to embrace you, but run away.


Far away.


This person I thought who would help me stand in my darkest storm, so far away I couldn't even see him.


Gone.


I am repulsive. Disgusting. Gross.


I am not worthy. I am sad. I am pitiful.


Mom, I miss you.


Why is this happening?


Dad, I miss you.


Why is this happening?


Please watch over me.


Please.


Xoxo,

C.
