At the mirror I stared <br />Ignoring why I was that scared <br />A girl was staring back at me <br />I stood watching her and I didn’t flee <br />She was begging me <br />To set her free <br />Before she would suffocate <br />Before it would be so late <br />I gazed at her weary eyes <br />Tears were growing but with no cries <br />I wanted to talk to her <br />But I lost my voice in the way <br />I wanted to touch her <br />But she just faded away...<br /><br />Darkness Herself<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-struggle-beyond-the-mirror/
