Many nights I caught myself staring at my reflection

Almost like there was a disconnection between who I am, where I stand and who I seen in this mirror in front of me

Imperfections are all I see on this face of mine, it's far from angelic, like many see it as

Everything through out the years I was made to endure, written on my pale porclein skin, these are my own personal scars

Wanting someone to read my soul, just so someone understands

Proofread these words, repair the broken parts, and find the missing pieces of me

Pieces of me that were lost for those who never loved, only destroying any heart as soon as they fell for their schemes

Taking light from anyone in their paths, only left in the destruction of darkness

This life you see was made for me, only the strong survive

Belonging to a rare breed

Shadows welcoming me, where no one can find me

Often feeling like I'm descending in madness, like darkness is winning daily

But I will always try to balance my demons and my love until I redefine the day I get to close these eyes for the very last time

Finally I'll be alive
