Memories of a mirror

Looking into the mirror
the cracked glass
this mirror is the key
it holds the secrets from the past
Mum says i should let go
whats done is done

For her maybe looking into the mirror
memories well inside
My eye black and blue
being raped in this very room

tears mist my eyes
my reflection fades away
i always said one day i would move away
but not before i lost everything
my mind
my soul
Ive lost it all

Memories surface
watching them i start to cry all over again
"do as your told"
he beat me again and again
my lip was cut
he pulled out a knife and said to me "be a good girl and let daddy see"
i took off my clothes
my body was there but my mind was far away
he raped my body
he would hit me for a response

My hand trembled as it moved over this mirror
for it held such evil memories
i want to be set free
braking the mirror
looking into the mirror i see the innocent child that was me!
