Reflection

i look in the mirror and i see a girl i dont recognize i see pain in her eyes you can tell she has been hurt by hate 
and lies i cant stop staring at her im paralyzed the girl in the mirror couldnt be me but i relized slowly that what i 
have been holding in for so long is starting to take over me i am her i am her and she is me that is the girl that 
only i can see the real side of me i am not who i seem to be look at my reflection and you will see that is me

If you don't recognize the reflection, it could be just some emotions you've been stuffing for a long time that wants to come out and is finally coming out, whether you are ready or not. Do not despair. Deal with your emotions and your pain ... head on. It will get better. Good, passionate write. Tony
