Reflecting back the years

Reflecting back my image
the mirror lets me know
what my mind doesn't recognize
all the years,
where did they go.

I cannot seem to justify
the number that I am
it doesn't fit a scenario
that I can comprehend.

My deluded brain
for now shall reign
I'll continue to pretend,
that what I see
ain't really me
most likely till the end!
