The Mirror
Run! Hide!
Go into the light
It's here for you
It's looking for you!!
Come on, in here
Don't follow the night
It will find you!
It's coming for you!
Stay Away!!
Leave me alone!!
I can do this
On my own
The shadows
The images
I see them in my head
I see them on these pages
Demons that stare
Make me more aware
Of the flaws of my flesh
These monsters, they never let me rest
No!! STAY AWAY!!
I cannot fight
The demons and the shadows
In the corners of my mind
At the corners of my bed
I see them, they see me
They mimic and move
The same as I do
I stand alone
In the light
But they see me through the night
They watch me
They wait
Until I get up
To get ready the next day
The screams and the horror
The veil through this massacre
It's hanging on the wall
Its...it's the MIRROR!
