Standing infront of the mirror
Looking into mine eyes
I see a girl
Trapped
In those two black holes

She disappears
Eyes blurred by teared
But she's still there
She's crying
and hiding

That little girl
Trapped in the eyes of mine

That little girl
is a reflection
of my body.
No soul.

When she leaves,
These eyes empty.
I have no soul.
Nothing hides behind these lying eyes.

I am not a person.
I am a body,
A reflection
of the nothingness that is me.

I was just looking at my reflection in my eyes and I started to cry. Looking at my self always makes me crack when I'm about to cry...it's wierd but anyway that's what inspired this poem.
