A cold and dusty mirror
With its faded, broken glass
It holds many tragic secrets
And has witnessed my dark past
I look at my reflection
And don't like what I see
A lost and bleeding little girl
Staring back at me
Her eyes are cold and distant
Her face is worn and gray
She tries to tell me something
But is not sure of what to say
A painful silence greets me
My blood is running thin
I know that I can't help her
I'm on the outside looking in
Death is coming closer
Dark shadows lurking near
I quickly soothe my mind with lies
And swallow all my fear
I look at my reflection
And don't like what I see
A hollow, empty little girl
Crying out to me

I really like this poem! (=
Good job.

But maybe you should take out the 'with lies' in that line. It sounds like there's just too many words. ><

I think it should stay. I though that was a good line and if you read it in a certain rhythm it'll fit together better. Great job! Love your word choice and everything.
