Untitled

As i stare at my reflection 
and examin all the improfections
your words keep rewinding in my head
"your beautiful" is what you said
as a single tear slides down my cheek
i wonder,"wheres the beauty of which you speak"?
my body scarred, my soul is broken
but you say theres truth in the words youve spoken
im scared of what will become of us
if its love or if its lust
will this tear stay as one
turn to a million 
or fade to none
