Stranger In the Mirror

I know who I am But not the person in the mirror A true companion of mine Always on my window when I wake up Inspecting and beautifying my face Picking my clothes Nodding if I am ready to go I always catch him looking at me during the day I have seen him walk besides me but he never talks to me I have met people, good and bad I have gone places, fancy and nasty My companion lives through it all Without saying a word A word I have started to dread What if this loyal stranger reveals who I really am The tears I hide The pain I feel The lies I tell Every night before I sleep I find him waiting for me In a twin room With things similar to mine Always watching me A stranger who knows everything about me
