It's there
It has always been there
Staring you in the face
But you can't see it
You never could
You've always just shut your eyes
And turned away
But it never did
That pitiful creature,
Always looking at you
With such blind admiration
How could it love you?
Be so devoted to you?
The one who lied
The one who abandon it
All of it was your own fault
Because you couldn't look at it
And only now do you realize
That you could never just leave it
For it is you, and you are it
So go ahead
Turn around
And look at that liar
That façade
That empty husk
It won't say anything
It's just your reflection
