Losing Myself

I look at my face in the mirror

The image is starting to crack

Nothing seems to be getting clearer

No one seems to be looking back

I close my eyes in terror

And open them to see

That there is nothing left of me

 

I'm losing myself

And I don't know what for

I'm floating away

From what's kept me on the floor

I'm starting to fade

From the portrait of what my life looked like before

Tell me what will become of me

 

I stumble into the bedroom

To witness a scene bathed in red

My body lie there on the mattress

A fresh bullet hole in my head

How can this have happened

Why am I still here

When will the answers appear

 

Who would have done this

I don't understand

How someone could murder

Such a simple man

Can somebody tell me

Why is there a gun in my hand
