I look in the mirror
I don’t see myself
I only see the pieces of what used to be
Every time I fall I get a little smaller
I always have had to leave some pieces behind
Only gluing the ones I could find
I have learned to stand alone
Fight the battles on my own
Survive but never thrive
It’s how I stayed alive
Leaning on someone else was never an option
They give false hope
I end up being the **** of all their jokes
I feel like I have to fight my demons
Then maybe I can give you what you need
Maybe someday I will find all the pieces of me
