MIRROR

The pain you hide everyday shows itself at night.

If someone could read your mind, they would be in tears.

Sometimes you think to yourself, "who needs April fool's day? My whole life is a joke"

You act like you don't care,

But deep down it scares you.

You say "sorry" a lot.

Mostly because you feel like everything is your fault.

You've locked yourself up in a bathroom, cried, washed your face and came back to your "wonderful" life like nothing happened.

You were once a true lover... Well you still are but not as much as you used to.

You used to give all your love to everyone..

Now you just distance yourself and just dream about it.

The heart is now too afraid to fall in love.

It sucks because,

For a minute you were happy,

For a minute you were getting better,

For a minute you had hope,

but in a minute you lost all again and now you're left to pick up the crumbs.

You can't wait to live because right now, you're just surviving.

You're a mess but you don't want to admit it. 

I get it.

Sometimes we need a good lie to cover up the painful truth. Yes 

But know that;

Somewhere in life, we're all a mess, the sooner we accept it, the less messier it is.

Now we're just staring at ourselves in the mirror, 

sigh and say;

"You're not a quitter but sometimes the game isn't worth playing anymore.."
