When she looks in the mirror
She doesn't see what you see
This person I thought I knew so well
Does not exist
This face of someone I do not recognize
My stomach hurts
I feel dizzy a neaseous
I'm so tired I can hardly stand
She needs to be told many times over
She is special, unique
And loved by all
But on the other hand the voices shout
You don't deserve their love
Not even a little bit, not at all
The treacherous pain that washes my senses
The screams all around me
Are faint in my ears

Minutes like hours pass
I plead and pray
I'll never touch it again
Just let me live one more day
Tears stain my memories as I reflect
My name in the sand will never last
Of all the words
Of tongue or closure
The saddest are those...
What might have been?
Remnant shards of the past
Come alive and awaken things inside
Those pieces of life
That was meant to be forever lost
Looking up to the sky with my secrets
And unpromising smile
I realize I can't fool you any longer
By the memories that continue to burn
Behind the Jewels of the Sun
