My reflection

by midnight♥lullibys   Jan 8, 2006


Almond eyes glare back at mine
Pouring black rivers of tears
Mascara bleeds as a sign
That theirs more here than what appears.

This girl that I used to know
Living in this fantasy world
Has lost all her old glow,
And now the truth is unfurled.

Silent screaming, scratching at the glass,
She begs me to set her free
Show her to her bright green grass,
Taste the depths of the salty sea..

But I can never do so
Let others see her sorrow
I can never let that side show
The screams in my pillow

At night she will come out to stay
Show me how things really are
But again I hide her everyday
And keep truth hidden afar

Don't tell me you understand
And that things will get better
I know each grain of sand
In that fantasy world in the mirror

My reflection,
My horror
My Satan
In the mirror

    'Almond eyes'
    This first description drew me in as it is an unusual use of colur. The flow worked well throughout.
