Mirror

by Cassandra Christilaw   Jul 23, 2004


For many nights have I cried
With this awful pain all inside
Nobody's ever there to see the real me
They think I'm just like them
When I'm just a plain nobody
Sometimes the thoughts of killing myself comes, but I cannot pull myself together to do so
Depression always comes eating every happiness inside of me
I feel like the devil himself has stolen my life
The girl I knew in the mirror isn't me
She is somebody else with wonderful eyes and a great smile
I think she has a better life then mine
She wouldn't get hurt by a guy or even have a messed up life
Tears stream down my cheek as I try to think of better things, but as I think there's nothing better there
The guy I thought I loved hurt me so many times and things get worse after that
My sisters are the greatest things I hold up so high, but I'm afraid that they'll be low one day
I ask myself who am I?
And I cannot even answer that question
I try to look at myself, but I see that girl smiling at me
Am I cursed to this horrible life?
Where did that girl who's staring right back at me go?
Her lovely humming reminds me of happiness, but happiness I forgot how it feels
If that girl in the mirror was me, then somehow in someway I'll find her
Now I'll lay me down to sleep and pray I'll find me again
