29,July,24. -mirror
I look in the mirror and feel immobile, For i see a face that i don't recognize, These set of foreign eyes These frizzy hair cannot possibly be mine? I look away ,to avoid her gaze. I search for my face in my mind's eye, Only coming up with beaten words, and muddy brown lies I fail to remember the face that i bear, Only my soul's traits come to mind. I look in the mirror and fail to recognize the person looking back, Can it be, that my face changes shape when i sleep When i try to imagine what my face may look like, no features come to mind. The reflected face smiles when i smile, And it is a strange site, Her smile is for me, while mine is for her, Yet her uncertain eyes tell me otherwise.
