mirror me

when i stare into the mirror
what is it i see?
i see my own reflection
staring back at me

but when i look deep within
the mirror of my soul
i see my present
and my past
but i cant see what the future holds

i see myself as what i am
and what i could have been
i see the shadow side of me
that's hidden deep within

as i stare at my reflection
staring back through my own eyes
i see myself as others do
but i also see the lies

the mirror rids me of disguise
of hatted, truth, and tears
i see myself through my own eyes
and see my deepest fears
a lost and lonely child

well
mirror, thanks for being there
but it's time i step away
it's time my mask came off for good
the real me's here to stay
