The Mirror

I look into the mirror...
What do I see..?
There is but a stranger...
Looking back at me...
I stand here and look...
For hours trying to find...
The beauty...
That others tell me is mine...
But, it really doesn't seem to matter...
Just how long I stare...
I just don't see it anywhere...
Instead I see...
Everything I try to hide...
There is a deep haunted look...
That I see in my eyes...
I really see alot more than I want too...
I see through my soul...
I see the real me...
Beautiful is not the way I feel...
How can they think...
What they see is real..?
I am not the one... that I appear to be...
The person on the outside...
Is not really me...
I am the one that hides with great fear...
That few people see...
Or, ever get near...
I hide behind these walls...
I hide who I am...
While I try to pretend...
That I just...
Don't give a damn...
