Epiphany's Reflection

IP:

This was something I wrote while playing "Epiphany" by Staind...
And I incorporated some of the lyrics into it and wrote around them....the lyrics in bold/italic are from the song....

Cause it’s always raining in my head
Forget all the things I should have said

I am nothing more than…a little
girl inside
That cries out for attention yet I always try to hide

I don’t linger on yesterday for fear of my pasts return
I don’t give hope to tomorrow, for I’m tired of being burned
Expectations gather on the cuff of knowledge’s sleeve
But disappointments have stain’d my gown, a tarnish that will not leave
I recall days of happiness and cry a sad song for those parted smiles
Now abstract stares conceal the vacancy of which my life comprises
Cause I talk to you like children though I don’t know how I feel
But I know I’ll do the right thing if the right thing is revealed

Inside my heart are boxes each with a chain that can’t be broken
Kept secure with locks long rusted, with little chance of being opened
And she too is inside my soul, her tears are what feeds my spirit
Lost within the depths of my mind she cries, but I cannot hear it
With no reflection to admire, who is it that stares before me in the mirror?
I stare into familiar eyes, but taught well over the years to fear her
A woman of strength, she mimics my movements and my choice of words
But in her eyes I see the same demons attacking her only her screams are not heard

Cause it’s always raining in my head
Forget all the things I should have said
