It could use some major work.. but thats what PIP is for, suggestions & then to revise. lol

Numb
I stand at my mirror
Looking through a haze
At a pretty little girl
With a battered face

Black and blue,
Swollen and hurt.
But its not on the outside
That these bruises are seen

I hurt on the inside
Both day and night
But no one can see
Behind the smile

Respect is little
Kindness is none
Put downs are expected
My feelings: numb

I've been on a really big kick lately- the writer's block finally left! yayy!

and a lotta that comes from bad judgment.

wow, I think it's great like it is...but? are you ok? Is this personal poetry, or "just poetry" ? If you need to, I'm an email away...

Thanks. But lately I've been going off the beaten path and not writing about personal experiences, so no, I am not going through this right now. I do appreciate both of your concerns though! =D

The only thing I didn't like about the piece was I thought the end was too abrubt, or just plain didn't make sense. But thanks for the compliments!
