Poems are the feelings you shall not say aloud.
Looking in the mirror, hoping to find something new- Something exciting, anything that would somehow turn into light. Which, in return, gives nothing; just emptiness of what should be there, maybe darkness one could say. As the eyes of your own keep wandering, seeking for something that could be true, just for them to catch a glimpse of a reflection of what seems to be a stranger looking back at you. A stranger who has the face of your own staring back- also in a quiet trance, but not entirely vacant- As if they knew something you did not. you yearn for change in yourself, the reflection gives some hope- only to be once shattered more by conscience that possesses you. Now, Its more than eyes lingering into glass, more so that it is a desire for the person who stands in front of you; the person who you strive for. Which they're so close to reach but yet too far to be. For the glass being a stranger who is your own.

A Stranger Who is Your Own
She was your first. Your first love, your first kiss, Your first in almost everything. You loved her, You really did. You did things with her That I wanted to be your first in. She won the race of your love before I even had the chance. Its all a curse on me. The smallest thing makes me sick. The jealousy, the sick feeling; It just eats me alive day, by day. Hearing her name coming out of that mouth of yours makes me sick. Your eyes glancing at her skin Makes me sick. You lying to me about her Makes me sick. Even the thought of you and her. Makes. Me. sick. So sick that I throw up. So sick that I cant even bare touching you. Let alone speak to you. It makes me more sick than youll ever know.
