I stand infront of the mirror
Looking my face finds me in tear
The feeling of running away from myself is so overwhelming
Covering my face and losing myself to fantasy world is calming
That's until the reality hits me harshly
The thin strand of hope breaking me
smashley
The look of pity grows nothing but a gnawing feeling
The sadness in their eyes when they see me is killing
It gives a glimpse of how everyone is going look at me
A heartbreaking small creature with no future is how they will see me
I fight hard to stop the tears that threaten to break in my eyes
I do all my best to look strong in their eyes
