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
