Faced Myself

I talked to the mirror today Tinge of surprise And the man that spoke back Was wise He told me a tale of a man Survivor yet weak Feigning strength to one and all Yet meek Finding fault in everyone he sees Saving them all Solving the problems of all the world Then fall It said the man seldom tried Expected so much A dreamer with visions unlived Clumsy touch Full of love to give but trust is guarded Searching for love Though torched he still strives on Aided above I talked to the mirror today and in it was me Not a surprise I finally faced myself and told the truth Removed disguise
