If my eyes were mirrors
Truth would be known

You would see yourself
Staring back at you
Seeing all that you have done
What you could have done
And all that you could never do
Showing all that you are
And everything you could never be

All the hurt and pain you have cause
The darkness you have brought with your plague
All this you would see
Everytime you looked into my eyes
You would not lie
You could not lie

The mirrors would show you, you
As it would show me you

That shield you have built for so many years
Destroyed instantly
All the memories you have pushed out of you mind
Back instantly

What do you say to such truth?
What would you do in the face of such truth?

You shield gone
Your memories back
Your breakdown coming

If my eyes were mirrors
You would not be able to lie
Not be able to hurt, destroy, and bring death
For they would show all
And they never lie.

I wear my scars proudly. They represent the battles through which I have gone, and I am proud because those battles I have won.
