My Mirror

by Beautiful x Disaster   Apr 22, 2005


I look into the mirror
Scared of what I see
Because in reality
The mirror is my worst enemy

Each and every day
It haunts me so
Its just killing me
Extremely slow

I can't face it
It is too strong
My mirror holds a face
That just doesn't belong

Mirror, Mirror
Please go away
I can't stand to watch
A life being decayed

Such an ugly potrait
of a person at their best
But on the inside
She is surely depressed

I hate that person
To the extreme
Does nobody hear,
Her obnoxious screams?

Mirror, Mirror, can you not hear?
The hurt held inside
Or at least see the tears
Millions of them that she has cried

You have to see
Those scars on her arms
Those hideous things
Caused from self-harm

They aren't just on her arms
They are all over the place
The memories of the past
Are just impossible to erase.

Mirror,Mirror, my best friend
Did you watch last night?
How could you miss it?
It was such a site

I placed the knife
A little too deep
Such a perfect way
To make me fall asleep

I'm really sorry, Mirror
I'm just doing what's right
I completely let you down
And lost this fight

I want to thank you, Mirror
You never told a lie
It was always the truth
Good-bye

Yeah. I'm slowly letting myself go of life.. and this is like a poem to myself reminding me whats right.
