The look in the mirror with a feeling I have never had
I don't really know if something has happened really bad
A tear comes right down my face
As if it was in a race
I close my eyes very tight
Thinking that will I ever feel bright
Another tear comes rolling down my face
In a different and unusual pace
I can't stop myself,I feel like the world has come to an end
It looks like this bend will never mend
It's time to break this intense
And have something between maybe a fence
I have never felt like this before
It is not real it is very raw
I don't know what has happened what is hurting me
Was it really that really it was he?
I didn't know what to think
Will my eyes stare and never blink?
Scared and worried that's how I feel
Will this feeling ever heal?
This feeling will continue through my whole life
It will stay sharp,sharper than a knife.
