Journey from the Lonely Mirror

Journey from the Lonely Mirror

A Poem by Bananabacon
"

Have you ever looked at yourself and not remember how you became that way? And no matter what you did you could never go back.

"

 Being in a large house.

Going down the long creepy hallways.

Then suddenly you stop.

There's a mirror in front of you.

You're looking at the floor

not wanting to look up.

Then you do.

You see yourself for who you've become.

You don't know who is staring

at you in the mirror.

Then you ask yourself.

What happened along this journey

I've been on.

So you sit in the hallway crying.

Scared to look at yourself.

You feel that you don't know who you are.

It's like in your head you see

yourself as a different person.

But the reality is you're not who you

thought you were.

With dispare you get up and continue

your long journey.

You leave that house.

Planing to never return.

But five years later.

You come back.

You walk those hallways once again.

You find that mirror.

You look in.

Hopeing to find a different person.

And you don't.

That reflection stayed there

as you moved on. 

Hoping that one day you would come back.

Seeking a different person.
