The mirror in the man
Once a day I get a visitor
occasionally its twice
Its a guy who looks just like me
he seems troubled but quite nice
He shaves his face and brushes his teeth
spits and has a rinse
Tries to flatten that wayward hair
he's not a frog but not quite a prince
And the he looks me in the eyes
and I see the thoughts go round
Eventually he lowers his gaze
and looks down to the ground
He looks to me like someone lost
uncertain of his way
I can see so much inside him
that he has yet to say.
In time I'm sure he'll find his way
better things will come to pass
But I have no way to let him know
for I am his looking glass.
