If you see yourself in a distorted mirror...

Small Deaths
As soon as the words escaped her mouth
Rachel wanted to put them back in
As soon as Daniel shook our hands
He looked to where he might slink away
Put them back in and slink away
She said: I thought I would die
He said: I’ve died a thousand times
Lauren’s homely face went bright red
When she overheard someone say her name
Ted felt everyone was staring at him
When no one really was paying him much attention
She said: I thought I would die
He said: I’ve died a thousand times
We want you to live
And not die every time
You see yourself
In your distorted mirror
We love you
Not despite your faults
But because of them
We love you just as you are
He wrote this song and became afraid
Of what you’d think of it
