Who do I see?
Looking at the mirror;
And the reflection
Of a girl.
Who do I see?
With distant eyes;
And a tight, hard
Smile.
Who do I see?
The girl who flees;
Runs away, far
From reality.
Who do I see?
A girl who used to be;
Used to do, but stopped
Making the effort.
Who do I see?
A girl who does not try;
Afraid, terrified, frightened,
Of not rising to the occasion.
Who do I see?
A girl with expectations;
From everywhere and everyone,
But seems to want to disappoint.
Who do I see?
A girl making the world
Want to want less;
To demand less from her.
Who do I see?
A girl with a broken shell,
Who does not know
Who she is anymore.
