There's this lady who I see,
I look in the mirror,
She stares back at me.
She's crying and all alone.
Standing there, right by her phone.
The tears she sheds,
Make her look alive.
She has a soul in there,
It's just disguised.
She says to me,
'My heart is broken,
But no one can know.
But I can't survive this on my own.'
So I reach to give her a hug
And I come to see,
This lady is just a part of me.

What inspired me to right this was myself. I just too the time to reflect on myself.
