Sold, my self worth.
Every morning the same routine,
 Open my eyes to the exact same scene.
 Looking in the mirror to perfect a smile,
 while longingly my shaded eyes, barely recognizable stare down at the tiles.
 The words I mutter with sincerity to the mirror,
 my own reflection, the rooms silence, reflecting as if I'm a killer.
 
 Ugly, Stupid,
 Unorganized.
 Fake , worthless,
 The very one person every one despises.
 And Sold! once, again.
 
 And moving on through out the day,
 In the lockers, hidden I stay
 Keeping my eyes casted away. 
 Slipping off the costume hiding my fate
 I look to see a monster I can't escape.
 How, fat, flab-ish and unloved
 Cringing, I'm given a shove, my self worth down the drain.
 
 At the end of the day
 I frown and sit, trying hard to not complain.
 So I pray,
 holding my hands up, to a god I'm unsure can hear
 All my thoughts that brings infinite tears.
 I relax, opening my shut eyes I hadn't noticed looked so alive
 At the kits, and cans of spray.
 So all I can do, is collapse and cry'
 holding out my arms wide 
 To the battle scars and beauty marks, 
 that remain.
 I'm sold, sold once again.
