Mirrors- Part 1

by Allison   Feb 2, 2006


Hit the breaks
and pay the toll
wait the long line
is my everyday roll.

I looked to the left
and to my right i stared
and noticed a girl
with the saddest glare

There she sat
with a torn up heart
a torn up life
that was falling apart.

I couldn\'t quite pick out
what really was going wrong
but I realized that she was mouthing
the words to my favorite song

\"when all you\'ve gott keep is strong
move along move along like i know you do
and even when your hope is gone
move along move along just to make it through\"

But her tears kept on falling
and her blinks began to hold
her grip began to losten
and her breath began to burn with cold

She tried to figure out
a way to stay strong
a way to let go
yet a way to hold on

and soon enough had i realized
what really was going wrong
why she was mouthing
the words to that song

no longer did i wonder
for the veiw became much clearer
at the moment i realized
i was staring in a mirror.

i\'m working on a second part to this poem but i guess that this one is going to have to do for now. it\'S not THE best poem, but i hope you all enjoyed it. rate and coment if you have the chance and i\'ll be sure to return the favore. thank you once again!
