Just Wondering

In my mind's eye,
I swear it's true,
I still look as
I once used to !

Yet in the mirror,
what do I see ?
An older woman
looking back at me !

It's hard to figure
when this took place...
what in the world
happened to my face ?

It does seem like it happens all of a sudden. But it's not easy to admit, for sure. Nice poem!
