The Mirror


I look in the mirror...

not intouched with what I see.

I look in the mirror...

wandering who is this looking back at me.

I look in the mirror...

at a soul that wants to leave.

I look in the mirror...

I see the speed demon in me.

I look in the mirror...

at the engulfing forces around me.

I look in the mirror...

I can't see what I'd seen.

I look in the mirror...

and

I See,

Not me,

But

Society.
