Sometimes

Sometimes I look in the mirror
And take a deep breath
Put a smile on
Even if i feel like death

Sometimes I look in the mirror
Tears pricking my eyes
Put a smile on
And put on my disguise

Sometimes I look in the mirror
And break down in tears
Ugly, stupid, awkward
Just drowning in my fears

Sometimes I look in the mirror
And feel so fucking empty
Empty eyes staring back
Thoughts in my head tempt me

Sometimes I just wish
I could look in the mirror
And feel happy
See the world a bit clearer

But instead I stare at my reflection
In disgust and hate
Praying one day
To feel anything but this weight
