Mirror

Faith is something i never had but my hopes were high Laughter i befriended now i know only cries. A victim i have fallen, lost in my subconcience Learning lies, liking hate, losing my emotion. I have a heart, but does it feel do i pretend to know what is real? Do i believe obvious lies so that noone can see the truth inside? I stare into a mirror, but i don't recognize the image staring back, those empty eyes, who is it looking back at me? have i lost myself and all that i believe? A reflection, i kind of despise a saddness that never dies Some days i wish i wasn't breathing i envy the nights i am wissfully dreaming I seem so happy when i am asleep Awake and tolerating the day, my reality must change this grief
