PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I LOOK AT MYSELF IN THE MIRROR AND TRY

TO LIKE WHAT I SEE, BUT I DON'T

I WONDER WHAT IS IT THAT YOU SEE IN ME

THAT YOU HAVE TO TAKE ME AND MAKE ME

BELIEVE I'M SOMETHING I'M NOT

I LOOK INTO MY EYES AND SEE A VISION

NOT REALLY THERE

A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH

I LOOK AND SEE MY HEART HAS RUN AWAY

INTO UNATTAINABLE ARMS

YOU HAVE MADE ME LOOK AT MYSELF IN

THIS TERRIBLE STATE AND I SUFFER

FOR AFFECTION

ACCEPTANCE

LOVE

I LOOK ALONG THE WAY AND SEE ROADS

LESS TRAVELED BY OTHERS

YET NOT BY ME

NO MATTER WHAT I HAVE TAKEN EACH ROAD

BATTLED THE WAR AND LOST, FOR MY HEAD

I BOW IN SHAME

I DARE NOT LOOK ANYMORE FOR I FEEL NOTHING

IS THERE FOR ME

MY HEART HAS BEEN THROWN AWAY BY THE HANDS

AND IT HAS BEEN WASHED A THOUSAND TIMES

TO STAY RID OF MY EXISTENCE

AND I AM FOREVER BROKEN

THE HANDS I LONG FOR

THE LOVE I CRAVE FOR

JUST TO LOOK

JUST TO LOOK AT WHAT I CAN BECOME

LOOK AT MY DREAMS IN THE MIRROR OF LIFE

IT IS SWEPT AWAY BY THE CLOUDS

AND I LOOK ONE LAST TIME

I AM ALONE
