Ridiculous

Gazing in the mirror.

You lose yourself to the fantasies

The thoughts inside left unspoken

And then you stand one day finally giving in

And you speak those silent dreams

Only to be filled with regret and dread

Feeling defenseless and exposed

Your next thought is only the desire to enshroud yourself

To hide from the mocking gaze that taunts you

Could it be you’re alone to face it?

Why did you make the mistake in trusting again?

Ridiculous, looking back you realize now

How to face your reflection again?

How to go on broken and humiliated?

Everyday a daily routine, mentally chiding

Abrasive thoughts punish your mind

You wish to be numb and nothing more
