The Girl Who Lives In The Mirror


I once met this girl, She was always boucing along happily, Playing without a care in the world, She had friends and extremely great family, I sit back and think, What am I missing that she had? Then I feel my heart sink. I'm not nice and I'm always sad. I make myself be alone, I have no real friends, My family is all gone, And i've ran off the deep end. I smear the black powder onto my lids, I stare into the mirror wide eyed. I smile really big, Hoping I don't look like I just cried. I look just like her, I noticed this awhile ago, Except my eyes are darker, And they are missing that pure glow.
