The Conversation
I talk, I try
I push, I cry
I persist, I lie...
The one I can love is way out of reach
I search for you in every face of earth
I look and look to find you
Knowing.... You are right beside me
You listen to me but you don't.
I persuade you every time...
You know
You hear
You see...
But you don't do.
You know who you are...
But you don't accept it...
If you can see me in suffering
And not care a bit.
Can't you see there could be a bright side of it
Wake up from the sweet slumber
So you can see...
I am you and you are me...
Thus the girl in the mirror said.
