Beyond the surface that you can see
I am not for you
Weak and cold, my heart can't grow
For you I'll only be dead
I wanna open up my heart and place it in your hands
And try to love again
Try to let you in
But I'm so afraid of what I could lose
If I lost you, I don't know what I would do
I've been sent to you, in pieces
There's really nothing you can do
I've been sent to you for a reason
And though I feel so close, I've yet to reach you
If only you could break through the surface
That I don't let anyone see
The part of me deep within that shatters silently
Along the road to happiness, I couldn't go on
I still don't know who I am, it all feels wrong
What used to feel so easy, now makes me fall so suddenly
The end of the world has come
But I want you to jump with me
Weak and cold, I don't want to be
That was the girl I used to be
Are you willing
To break the surface of me?

This was very good!
I loved the cliff hanger ending of suspence!
and the way you used images of shattering mirrors and surfaces of reflection and the thought of seeing past that into a true meaning of depth.
well done.
