My reflection

by lauren   Jul 9, 2006


I stand before the mirror
And look at the self posing contrast,
It’s yelling at me continuously
The words hurt like a blast.

the image is anonymous
screeching these hateful words
leaving my heart forever scarred
my eyes see nothing but a muddled blur.

My reflection has no face,
My body feels no pain,
My mind lives without fear
Except the thought of erasing my name.

So bad I want to leave this,
This ugly place we call home
But I sit here continuously
In the dark and on my own.

I make my last prayer tonight
To the one who be named god
This is coming from deep down inside
Praising to the lord.

My lord do you hear me?
Can you see the pain I’m in?
Why can’t you just end my life?
Wash away all my sins,

My heart is too broken
It cuts away at my soul
My mind no longer progresses
My body is an empty hole

So please god do me a favor
And answer my last request
Take away my life, my pain
I know you’ll do your best.
