Smear on the mirror

face not far behind

place has been assigned

in the beginning of her time

not at fault

for the way she exists

cant replace

whats been crossed off the list

she stares at herself

while clenching her fists

she fears the way she feels

and yet feels based on fears

in the steam kissed mirror

she couldnt forget the broken years

her eyes shed a tear

to show her appreciation

for all thats been taken

and leaving her foresaken

for all her loss

for the expensive cost

of how she lives

shes forgotten how to give

although theres nothing left

she used to feel like something

someone used to hide

right there inside

deep in her heart, or mind

but shes but that something she had behind

now she only stares or sleeps

occassions like this, thinks of what she cant keep

or how it would be to just take a leap

Either into the mirror

or eternal sleep

both are welcome to her

shes lost the will to endure

leaves a handprint on the silver

in tribute to the end
