Mirror Images What I Don'T Want To See Anymore
I am afraid of the failure that is me
For years I've tried to become more than a statistic
The mirror is my stalking ground
Treating me like prey,
I have yet to encounter when I will love myself one day
My mother made a mistake when she chose to birthed me
Or maybe it was God, who didn't realize
How disappointing I've grown to be
Sometimes when looking at graveyards,
I recall, the luck they must feel
To not be here anymore
Or to have this upsetting world left with to deal
