Reflection

I don’t know a pain worse that you You cry out that I am the hypocrite When all along it was indeed not I, but you I think I finally figured it out you see, That I was merely your mirror A reflection You were using Something yet You still have no idea That is not me But solely Yourself Lonely as you are Looking Searching for a way out Nothing simple about you You want But cannot reach You strive but really aren’t alive You gave me the biggest slap That was the absolute worst disgrace You have shown no respect for me or your own inner space they always say know a man by the friends that he keeps I really should have taken that to heart The moment I met those God awful peeps Barren old **** that she is Disrespectful and grim Hides behind her smile like you she does Perhaps you feel at peace A comfortable reflection At last One that fits No pressure To be your best A barren old **** is she One that hits on a man Who stands next to his woman? WOW, she is olden golden She travels so far chasing a band So much yet to reflect Keep the mirror Oh so clean Your reflection Your mistake You care not You just take Take Take You called yourself a villain As I didn’t see Perhaps it was your own way Of warning me Rest him As you say yet be sure you keep him at bay Take time to reflect Find the real you Because right now I don’t think You fit in your own shoes
