Who is She?
Why must she always hide in the shadows?
Peering around her smile playing pretend
Running from her fears, that are shooting at her like arrows
Yet there always has to be a dead end
Looking each and every way for a new direction
Instead of staying and fighting
She feels as if she’s stuck in a mirror with nothing but her reflection
Showing a soul that is slowly dying
Time slows at every impasse she can tell
As darkness overtakes her spirit
Slowly turning her soul into an empty shell
That will soon become but a mere memory locked away in a locket
She fears that she’ll leave behind a tarnished memory of herself
That no one will ever truly see her real identity
She has no way out, for she doesn’t even know her true self
All anyone thought of her was that she showed a shield that only reflected off her fragility
