Leave me

32 14 8
                                    

Leave me,
However you please,
Because I get no sleep,
When you haunt my dreams.

Let me be,
Rest in peace,
Go back to your grave,
Where you left me.

Stop hiding in my shadows,
Following my every move,
Watching my every step,
Haunting me.

Stop taunting me,
Mimicking my movements,
Leave me alone,
To find my peace.

You're hidden behind glass,
A reflection of hopelessness,
A mirror of a girl,
Straining to break free.

An illusion,
Of something I wish to be,
Something that can easily disappear,
Into shattered glass.
