The way you look at me
Makes me wonder what you see.
Has my mask slipped,
Paint begun to drip?
Wating for the gasp
This facade can't last.
Holding tight to the ledge
Forever dancing with the edge.
One false move
Will only prove
What I see in me
Is all there can be.
Your smile makes me hide
Die more inside.
Studying my reflection,
For signs of my infliction.
I walk through the mirror
Hoping the other side is clearer.
Praying this is the place
I can bare my face.
That I can finally be
Free.
