Tears on my face
And nobody knows.
I cry inside
But don’t let it show.
My life is ruined.
I never was perfect.

I look in they mirror
And to my horror
Out peeks a face:
A complete disgrace.
All I see is me,
Not what I could be,
Not what you wanted,
Not what you dreamed.

Ashes of my failure
Smear my visage.
Time for me to face you,
Humility and all.
Like a pebble in your shoe,
I bother you too.
All because I’m not
A clone of you.

I’ll go out alone,
I'll live reality.
I'll embrace what you haven't...
Your mortality...
