My strings unravelling,
I'm coming apart at the seams.
On the outside, I make it
look like I'm in one piece.

But inside I'm dwindling down,
to what frightenly resembles nothing.
So I smile at the mirror,
trying to remind myself of me.

But I can't remember who I was,
or who I am supposed to be.
And this loss of memory is frightening.
Because if I can' remember that,
then who will I be in the morning.

When the sun wakes me up
to show me that I'm crumbling.
Diminishing into particles
that my own eyes can't even see.

At least I awake to smile another smile
into the mirror reflecting,
tht I'm coming apart at the seams.
