Reflection

by Not just a metaphorical genius   Aug 5, 2006


Its time to face the girl in my mirror
The one whos faced with pain and with terror
The one who knows me better than I
The one that hides, that is too shy

I ask her, what I can do
To take her pain, and start over new
She just looks back, with fearful eyes
Scared of the hurt, the pain and the lies

She wipes her eyes, and hides once more
Behind the mask, that became the door
What people saw, was just a mask,
An immortal actress, was her simple task

I reached my hand out, to touch her face
But my fingers felt mirror, in her place
Her pain was mine, not meant for others
A solution so simple, yet the pain meant to smother

I sank ever deeper, pain dragging me deep
Scared of my dreams, not willing to sleep
The thought of facing that girl one more time
And the mountain of pain, I had to climb
