Same

Same fabric same clothes
But I stand in the mirror with yet another pose

Same blanket same bed
But I realize my safe haven is just an excuse for procrastination woven with thread

Same wallet same money
But what used to mean freedom now means responsibility

Same tears same eyes
But no more hugs I am in the bathroom with muffled cries

Same face same smile
But the little girl has been lost for a while
