Smudge

A smudge on the mirror Thats all I can see I cant see the eyes staring back at me My vision is blurred My sight unclear Why cant I see when I am so near To the person on the other side Still I cant see the tears she's cried Before me the image is a lie For it can only show the outside Not the truth that's held inside Behind the eyes that I cannot see For the smudge is keeping it hidden from me

I don't know how many times I've stood in front of the mirror not being able to see. Love this.
