Mirror Image
Scared by the one
You see in front of you,
The one not like you
That always tries to be
But it is never right
You don’t like the one
Who tries to be your
Reflected image
But you have to deal
With them to the end
You feel uncomfortable
In their binding presence
You hate them because
They remind you of
Your undying pain
You try to change it
To your own liking
But it still isn’t right
And feel the pain in
Your head as you
Can’t deal with them
Not being exactly like you
Because your mirror image
Should be you in every detail
Not a random person
That is not you,
The person in the mirror
That you try to make you
Is never going to be
The mirror image of you
