Trapped in a mirror

Trapped

The darkness around me fills my senses
With thoughts of freedom hope and ambition
My cold hand quickly turns pale and tenses
I still do know that this is my mission

My long slender limbs, I know will not last
Every second feels like decades pass by
Drops of energy evaporate fast
Standing by myself on the other side

My friends look at me with disappointment
Their judging expression burns up my heart
Forced as an introvert with no ointment
wistfully nothing will tear us apart

Trapped as a reflection in your mirror
I am at no time present in your heart
