A poem written when I was going through a very depressing period in my life.
For years I thought otherwise
Looking in the mirror the sight I despised
I couldn’t find one good thing to say about myself
Knocking all of my pictures off the shelf

I speak from the heart so sensual and deep
My words will creep upon your spirit when you are asleep

They call me Ms. Blyss
And that’s what makes me the shit!
