Bared


I haven't ever told anyone this But I'm scared to look, In the mirror anymore. I'm scared to raise my eyes to see the reflective world, Because the one I see, Just isn't me, her eyes are black-colorless She's someone else Someone surrounded by lies and tears and a deep dark unknown abyss, A history of cries of helplessness, The world! The world looks at her beauty her fake shivering laughter As I now raise my eyes to look at her I realize finally that her black eye are the path to her soul, To my bare soul
