Not Completly Broken

Who is this stranger that stairs back at me as I look into the mirror each day Where did she come from and what does she want from me This isn't the same girl that I have known all of my life There is someting different about her She looks lost and alone unsure where it is her life is headed I dont like this girl I see She has taken over my life tearing it apart How do I get rid of her sending her back where she came from How do I tell her that no one wants her around and that she has caused too many problems in my life I want things to go back to the way they once were before she came into my life Why can't the mirror just lie to me showing me what it is that I want and need to see because sometimes the truth is just too hard to face Maybe I can keep on pretending that everything is ok that my life could not be more perfect But then I would just be fooling myself Maybe it would be better that way Life would be alot easier With every laugh and smile I fake no one would even realize anything is wrong That is that way I want it to be It is the only way to keep the world from seeing right through me I refuse to let anyone know my pain To do so would mean to let someone in and no good could come of that Whats done is done There is no way to fix the broken No glue is gonna put these peices back in place I have accepted that and I have learned to deal with it so I sheild myself from the world only to protect what is left of the real me so everyone may see I am and ever will be completly borken.
