In the Mirror


In the Mirror

No Boundaries Press

I'm the girl they want
But they never want to keep I'm left standing cold
The wind rips through my soul
I'm the girl they don't think twice to leave behind
My tears become icicles an empty heart
I walk through the icy waters
Waiting for the warmth Lingering words
Hurtful light I'm the girl they want
But never want to keep
They never put up a fight

I've been bruised while they walk off without a scratch
Or an honest goodbye
I'm left wading in all their lies

Undone


Undone

Why Can’t I Stay?

I see the mountains
The rolling hills in the distance
I want to break free
Run within the trees
I’ am afraid of my existence
The flowers bloom
I lay in the open field
I smell the sweet fragrance
That surrounds their day
Why can’t I stay?


I no longer want to worry
I no longer want to be afraid
The stars beckon for my attention
The moon sits lonely in the distance
Will I be able to resist it?
The coldness of the night
Burns me deep inside
I’m unable to fight the
Numbness that has been given to me
I want to break free
