Trapped In This Place

I stand in front of the mirror,
Not happy with what I see,
The shattered image of my reflection,
Makes me want to weep.

What has happened to me,
I'm just not the same,
Once a strong, independent girl,
But now that strength is drained.

A face that was once full of joy,
Deep blue eyes without a fret,
My face and eyes are now full of sorrow,
And getting sadder yet.

Why can't I fix this mess,
That I have now become,
I don't like this hatred in my heart,
It's just not any fun.

I step away from the mirror,
Just can't take this disappointment,
I lay down in my bed,
Full of resentment.

I close my eyes to go to sleep,
Slowly tears roll down my face,
Subside into unconsciousness,
Dreading that I'm trapped in this place.
