I have always been a mirror
My reflection resembles flesh that is not my own
Strangers see me as someone else
Sister, friend, mother, daughter
My face breaks into shards
Piercing others with my edges
Reminding them of someone
Perhaps I am the resemblance of sorrow
I resemble a figure of how someone felt
Looking at me hurts
Their words pour out of my eyes
I am sorry it has to be this way
When I see a face in the crowd
The face I have been searching for
My heart is disrupted of its peace
Reaching out with hands through my chest
I realize that I am only looking at a mirror
A reflection of a face that I once knew
But now, have forgotten
My heart goes back to its rhythm
My eyes settle to the floor
The mirror walks past me
Stabbing through my chest
