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?
