I look at myself in the mirror
But who do I see.
This is not a person I know,
How can this be?
I recognize the face and the lines surrounding it,
The eyes are just two empty spots.
The mouth is sad and out of happiness,
Where is it? There used to be lots.
I am confused and scared,
Have I wasted my chance in life?
Do I even care?
Is it not life I despite?
I’m becoming empty inside,
Can I ever stop it?
I wish you were here now,
To remove it bit for bit.
I can’t handle this by myself,
I want to get rid of my fear.
The emptiness that fills me,
I can’t even draw a tear.
