The Mirror
As I look over my life
There’s a lot of people I could blame
Of things that happened to me.
It’s not worth it though
So I keep my thoughts in my dreams…
Instead I will face the mirror on myself
As I look in the mirror
I have lost the very essence of me
I am invisible to the world
My voice has no voice
No pulse
So u know I can’t breath
Where did I go wrong?
Why has life hurt me?
Or was it I that made these choices
Forced into adulthood so earlY
Unable to experience the freedom of life
The mirror never lies
It only shows what it sees
Take a look in the mirror and when you do
Will u see what I see?
