When you lose yourself in an abusive relationship, you will someday have to face the stranger in the mirror.
The Stranger in the Mirror Died Today
I sit before the mirror and see,
A stranger looking back at me;
Who is that betrayer?
Who is that slayer . . .
of the former me?
I stand before the mirror and see,
The shadow of the woman I used to be;
No longer the owner of my soul,
No longer my spirit do I hold.
Please, Stranger, leave me alone,
Away to hell you must go;
For I am here to reclaim . . .
The little dignity that remains.
So, Stranger in the mirror, you shall die today.
