Chapter 1 - Untitled
Shattered Mirror
When I look in the mirror
I see myself as I used to be
It looks me in the eye
Making me not want to see
It shows me as a child
Wild and free
But now I’m nothing
Nothing like I used to be
Now all I see is a poor soul
Crying as it is alone
And lying in an empty room
As if they were a drone
My young reflection taunts me
Laughing at my despair
Making me believe that
No one seems to care
So with my fist I shatter the mirror
Leaving nothing but shattered glass
And blood slips through my fingers
Leaving me to weep fast
So I sink down to my knees
Then I begin to cry
Now I’m left to wonder
I’m left to question, “Why?”
When I look in the mirror
I see myself as I used to be
It looks me in the eye
Making me not want to see
It shows me as a child
Wild and free
But now I’m nothing
Nothing like I used to be
Now all I see is a poor soul
Crying as it is alone
And lying in an empty room
As if they were a drone
My young reflection taunts me
Laughing at my despair
Making me believe that
No one seems to care
So with my fist I shatter the mirror
Leaving nothing but shattered glass
And blood slips through my fingers
Leaving me to weep fast
So I sink down to my knees
Then I begin to cry
Now I’m left to wonder
I’m left to question, “Why?”
