The Girl in the Mirror

This is something I wrote yesterday and I wanted to share it with you.
The girl in the mirror she just looks at me with no direction with no satisfaction she just stares right back at me…wondering if things will ever change or will things just the same. Her eyes hopeless with visions fading away, what’s wrong with this girl in the mirror I used to know her so well…but now she seems yet so far away. The truth is the things in life have waded her down, the pressures that she feel are the things that keep her bound. Answers seem long gone and the future seems to fade away in the darkness that she feels inside and things that she hears others say. See this girl, she allow people to affect her…their moods, the attitudes, and their judgmental ways. She’s so effected by people that she doesn’t allow herself to be true. Struggling to be free from what she’s allowed herself to be captured with, time just seems to fade away at its best. How did things get this way, how did she lose control. Was it just because she wasn’t ready for her future, ready to live outside of what people tried to control her with? As she thinks to herself as she looks in the mirror today, she mentally tells yourself this is the last day. “The last day to be controlled by others and what they say or do, the last day to be controlled by people who want nothing good for you”! With something like a smirk or smile she looks in the mirror and realizes every worthwhile, she’s ready, she’s ready. Living outside the box is not an easy step, but the future is out there so it’s worth the risk…
