Empty Tears In a Mirror

Each day goes by, and I wonder why

Why I don't stop this, why I won't cry

How I can't sit there, say everything is alright

When everyone else's day is happy and bright

Just to act as if my feels don't exist

And with each tear wanting to come out, I find I resist

I feel like a monster, a horrible and terrible child

Someone animal that's be trapped, not allowed to be free in the wild

Caged and trained, broken down to the last piece

Scared of being herself,  heart no longer on lease

It's too shattered to do anything, like a broken mirror

Glass splattered across the floor, coated with empty tears

A reflection of someone who finally broke, who finally gave up on life

Who know cries tears of shame, lashing out in anger and strife

I no longer want to be here, hanging on to broken dreams

Ones I never want to see again, one's that cause my heart to scream

So please, please let me go, please set me free

Let this be just a reminder, you've finally broken me

Now let me go, I'll go away, so you never have to try

And leave me with those empty tears in a mirror, the ones I had to cry

Author's Note

I guess it's broken. My writer's block.

Oml, this poem is so sad... I'm just gunna say, its not like your other peices. The wording is odd, and this peice is kinda choppy. BUT, that makes it seem even more sad, as if the person just doesn't care anymore. Like she's truely given up on everything...
