23 AprMirror, Mirror

I saw myself look through the glass
And felt my fingers touch
The contact felt as cold as ice
My heart, I wished, to clutch
 
Reflection staring back at me
With eyes that tell no lies
Are you who you’re meant to be?
Or are you in disguise?
 
My eyes looked deep into my own
The truth they saw in there
It hit so hard, I hid my face
And prayed a silent prayer
 
Reflection staring back at me
With eyes that tell no lies
Are you who you’re meant to be?
Or are you in disguise?
 
I stared now at my sunken cheeks
And at my waning smile
I was a prisoner in a court
Standing at my trial
 
Reflection staring back at me
Tell me now, what do you see?
