I stand at the mirror,

A stranger stares back.

This girl is no longer me,

Just a hollow reminder of who I once was.


My empty eyes,

My fake smile,

My emotionless face,

None belong to me.


I used to laugh,

I used to smile – a non-fake one.

I used to sing and dance and giggle,

But now I don't.


I sit at my window

In my dark room

And I watch the world

Carry on,

Not even noticing

I'm no longer a part of it.


I see people pass by.

Couples holding hands,

Children riding bikes,

Families laughing together,

People walking their dogs,

Travel past

Where I sit,

Where I watch.


How I long for that,

To feel some emotion,

Happiness, sadness, anger or pain,

ANYTHING would be good.


But I don't,

I only feel numb,

My heart is numb

My head is numb

My soul is numb.


I don't care about anything anymore

And all I can do,

Is continue to watch

People live their lives

With emotion,

While I wait

Wait for the END.
