Reflections...
We dont see the changes we've made till we've taken a good look in the mirror
Where I once recognized the face I saw
A face I knew so well
Once I reflected the person inside
But now, when mirrors fell...
Crashed all the pieces of a perfect face
Shattered all over the floor
Where once it stood - where once I saw
My image is no more
The person that I used to be
Faces a blank wall
When pretenses seem to slip away
Just as mirrors fall
Once I knew my heart rhythms
Memorized each beat
Traced the patterns - it's ups and downs
Now lay fallen at my feet
I thought I knew each feature right
But recognition faded fast...
Who are you I ask silently
To the broken pieces of glass
Unfamiliar heart, a strangers soul
I know it can't be mine
Can I be someone so very different
Than what mirrors can define
Perception of myself might change
Confusing who I appear
Buried under things unknown
The real me is still there
You've changed. My face screams
And my reflection once agreed
But the cracks distorted features
Change my whole identity
No longer clear, no longer there
Turned away so I don't see
The reflection of a person
That I know no longer's me...
