Conversations In The Mirror
Each day I told you
That I hate you
I’d berate you
I’d tell you how you’d fail
And that nothing would turn out well
And yes, I told you
That you weren’t worth a hill of beans
That you’d never amount to anything
And that you’d never find anyone or anything
That would make you happy
I told you
That true love no longer exists
That I wasn’t just being a pessimist
And your search for love and happiness
It was over
And I told you
All the times you fell
For one who didn’t mean you well
How stupid you had become
Thinking you’d found the one
And I told you
There would only be darker nights
That darkness had extinguished hopes light
And that no one could ever love you
After all that you’ve been through
And I told you
That I knew you were tired of all the pain
That the anxiety and depression brang
No one would ever understand
Even if you tried to tell them
And each day
I meant every word I said
Looking in the mirror wishing you were dead
And I was sure God would understand
If you weren’t here anymore
But
You're still here
You made it through those years
And I tell you that all those scars
Made you the man you are
And I tell you
You should let the past fade away
You shouldn’t live in yesterdays
You can be who you were meant to be
For all the world to see
And I tell you
That you should know your worth
You should live your dream on Earth
And you should leave heaven
Where it has always been
And I tell you
Let your positive action write your eulogy
By just being the best you that you can be
Because you never know when
You never know when . . .
Will be the end
