MIRROR


The reflection that we see
The truth is that we live to be
Those eyes that can’t lie
Those mouths that can make us cry

Not physical, But mental
It makes us emotional
reflection of us that we see,
Faces that others want us to be

Those reflections of my tears
Falling down with griefs
Realizing my mistakes
even though, i do it for your sake

Those reflection of my ears
hearing that I don’t have fears
But deep inside it makes my heart in despair
Sometimes the pain I cannot bear

Eyes that can see all of my mistakes
Ears that heard the shortcomings i make
tears that carry my burden alone,
heart that suffers from mixed emotions

The mirror that shows the unknown
from the real me that I've known
Is it really necessary?
To live the way they want us to be?
