There she is smiling
She looked exactly like me
My carbon copy
Natural
dark hair
Slender
skinned with sharp features
Everyday she walks around with a fake smile
She lived like this for quite a while
She carefully created a clever mask of illusion
She wears to hide her pain and confusion
You can't see behind her eyes
What really lies beneath it all
You don't know when she crys
Or when she is afraid
You can't see the real her
Because she trys to hide her face
She hides in her corner and in the rain
And cries her eyes out so no one sees her pain
But I can see the fears that she trys to hide
I can see the scars inside of her
She was alone
she was afraid
She can’t try anymore to bandage her wounds
There are too many
As I stand here and watch her
I feel this emptiness inside her soul
Standing in her own pair of shoes
Being wary of things she choose
It’s like an endless fight
She has more losses than wins
The road she has travelled
Bridges she has crossed
She has come to many stops
Like most roads
it has sharp turns
And it's sometimes all uphill
So many things has happened to her in just a few years
How can she break this wall around her
That causes her heart to grow in pain
A lake of tears
Could not wash away the pain
For the heart she once had is forever lost
For she knows failure is not the end
As I get closer to see her face
Something that’s been bothering me
I soon realized that my own body was trembling
As I raised my hands to touch my face
The warm sensation of tears shocked my fingertips
I reached out to touch the girl
And my fingers collided with hard
smooth glass
My reflection was staring back at me
And my heart had been revealed
