Lying To The Mirror

by soullessslut

How do you love yourself When all you want is someone eles. It kills me to see everyday What I've always wanted But could never pay to have. I was born the way I am Whether I like it or not And it makes me cry at night to visualize what I want But now know is impossible to have. It hit me like a train Breathless Frozen in time The seconds seemed like minutes flowing by Tears streamed down my face and I couldn't make words I couldn't speak Being told I'll never have what I've always looked forward to Always wanted to have Sincerely shattered me. I was told I needed to look at myself in the mirror And tell myself I love myself And will make what I have work That would be a lying, But I guess I'll have to learn, Because if I dont soon Im not sure how much longer I'll last.
