MY MIRROR
by J.G.P.
In my mirror, I can see my self
The way I am, as it was meant to be
If the light is not right, a change is easy
For what my mirror reflects, is only for me to see
Perhaps some cloth of a different color
May change the look and help to hide
The emptiness that I feel inside
But standing there, I see myself
I can not change a single thing
For the past reflects only to one
What their future will bring
Youth and strength, I too once knew
But my mirror seems not to care
It only reveals what it can see
Even if its a dishearten stare
My mirror tells me no lies
It sometimes laughs, and often cries
It does not see the need in me
Should I let it go, or just let it be?
A mirror will always be the same
Whoever stands there, is the one to blame
If you can not see, what you want to see
You may borrow my mirror from me
