I woke up this morning
No different than anyother day.
As I do every morning
I made my way into the shower

I couldn't bring myself to look in the mirror

They reflect back to us ourselves
Physically they show how we appear before others
Metaphorically they show how we are inside
Reflecting our inner emotions and thoughts

I couldn't bring myself to look in the mirror

Who I saw was no longer me
That boy,
If he truly is human...
Was not me

Perhaps I am but a former shell of who I was
Or is it that I didnt see the changes so obvious to others?
I make more mistakes than I can keep up with
Snapping at you
Turning on others
Making poor decisions and ultimately

You said im pushing you away...

Id rather die if I didnt have you
Petty and pathetic as that is
There is no meaning to my life otherwise
So...

Who is this person in the mirror before me?
I cant recognize him and I dont know how to bring me back
