stranger

I look for myself in the mirror All I see is broken clouded eyes and dimmed lights my smile scars my face I don't feel it anymore I don't feel anything nobody needs to know I'm there but I'm not I look for myself in the mirror I don't know who this stranger is here but I'm scared that one day she wont be there the dark parts are suffocating Im running out of breath I can't run for a long till I end up right back running on a blank path

Thank you so much! It's so hard being in a dark place and still praying through it and having to remind yourself to have faith, but I know God has a plan. Hope you are blessed too.
