Mirror on the Wall (Smile part 2)
Look in the mirror 
 Try to smile but 
 You do not recognize 
 The girl in the mirror.
 The girl has
 Red eyes,
 Running nose,
 A fake smile. 
 When you see her
 You feel
 Helpless,
 Pathetic,
 Lonely,
 Scared, 
 Ugly.
 The girl in the mirror
 Pushes people away
 So she doesn’t get attached.
 She does not know 
 How to love. 
 She refuses to 
 Show emotion,
 To learn to love,
 Let anyone get close to her.
 Because she know that once she begins 
 Everyone will abandon her again. 
 So that girl in the mirror 
 Gets up and 
 Smiles through the pain.
 Pretending that everything 
 in her life is perfect.
