Reflection


As you walk by me I try not to stare For to see you with some else Is something I can not bare I disguise my true feelings To give you what u want It does not stop though What I feel deep inside my heart Why do you act so bitter towards me? And treat me the way you do? I’m always asking myself this question Why must I conceal how I really feel about you? Must I always wear this mask? And pretend im someone who u want to see I keep getting lost in this dungeon That contains just you and me I gaze upon the waterfall And drift way below Now all that remains of me Is someone I dont know You pass on by I look the other way I try not to think too much I can not decipher all the words I have to say I see a girl who looks familiar to me Caught up in her flawless beauty I wonder who she could be? I turn around just to take a glance And when I do lights flash before me All at once what remained a mystery Is suddenly revealed to me I follow the light That lies ahead Could it be true? Is this all in my head? I run faster towards the figure I now see And when I finally approach it; I see a mirror Instantly, I see a reflection… Its me…. .
