Girls in my mirror

There lives 2 girls in my mirror, they often talk for me or sometimes even to me but they know they're right.

One night i was sitting beside my mirror gazing up at the stars when i heard a quiet sobbing noise,i looked beside me and there was a beautiful girl in my mirror sobbing as if her heart was broken. When i asked her what was wrong she replied that she just couldn't understand anything anymore...the pace at which the world was going was scaring her and she felt incompetent...she felt she was just letting herself and others down. She told me she had friends but she could not talk to them because something was ever so painfully holding her back like she was bound by chains. She just didn't understand anymore...She used to think she was smart,pretty,nice,caring but now she didnt feel like she was any of those things anymore. I reached out to touch her but i couldn't. I gazed at her for a while before looking away for there was nothing i could say to stop her crying because even though i thot seh was beautiful,she was firmly convinced that she was not.

There is another girl who lives in my mirror. She on the contrary,is not pretty. She only appears to me when i feel depressed. She laughs at me. A cold hard cruel laughter that keeps ringing in my ears even when i don't look at her. She reminds me of everything she is and everything she is not. She keeps reminding me of how ugly she is. She keeps reminding me of how beautfiully perfect all the girls i admire from a distance are. she points at me and keeps reminding me of my scars. Nothing i say or feel will ever make her go away.

Am i supposed to let these girls live here in my mirror forever?
