It means a lot. I'd Like to know what you think, good or bad [bodytext] => Staring into the eyes of the person in front of me
Hatred boiling in my blood
I start to scream in her face
“You are such a fake!
Just be yourself!
If you don’t like a person,
Don’t pretend you do
You lie to yourself
And your are becoming someone else
I hate you more than anything!”

Cold eyes stare back at me
Her lips quiver and a tear runs down her red cheek
There isn’t a real bone in her body
She is like a Barbie
Perfect skin, perfect hair, perfect smile
Only I know the smile is fake
I lift my hand and wipe away the tear from my face
The truth is she feels like she has to
Like no one will accept her if she shows the real her
Reaching out I touch her cold glass face
Letting my hand fall, I turn
And walk away from the mirror

The Face In Front Of Me

Topic: selfstruggles



Staring into the eyes of the person in front of me
Hatred boiling in my blood
I start to scream in her face
“You are such a fake!
Just be yourself!
If you don’t like a person,
Don’t pretend you do
You lie to yourself
And your are becoming someone else
I hate you more than anything!”

Cold eyes stare back at me
Her lips quiver and a tear runs down her red cheek
There isn’t a real bone in her body
She is like a Barbie
Perfect skin, perfect hair, perfect smile
Only I know the smile is fake
I lift my hand and wipe away the tear from my face
The truth is she feels like she has to
Like no one will accept her if she shows the real her
Reaching out I touch her cold glass face
Letting my hand fall, I turn
And walk away from the mirror
