That Girl

There is a girl I know.
She spends all her time hanging around me.
From the moment I wake up,
Until the moment I fall asleep, she's there.
I cannot stand this girl.
She hogs the mirror, complaining about her looks
She doesn't quite fit my clothes, but insists on wearing them
If I really want something, she will sabotage me
I hate this girl
When I have things I need to get done,
She will waste my time with trivial matters.
Anytime I try to better myself, she finds a way to ruin it
This girl is ruining my life
No matter how I try, I can't make her leave.
She won't give up, won't give me a moment's rest
Even if I run away she's right behind me
How can I lose what appears to be my own shadow
This girl is a parasite.
As soon as I open my mouth, her words come out
She is clumsy, awkward, & incompetent.
Her stupidity overshadows my cleverness.
She is the reason no one takes me seriously.
I sometimes wish this girl were dead.
This girl who steals my time.
This girl who won't give me a moment's rest.
This girl who cannot function.
This girl is who I see when I look at my reflection.
I am that girl.
That girl who gave up everything because of a broken heart.
That girl who isn't good enough.
That girl who won't make the effort to be better.
That girl with all these flaws,
She is me.
