Mystery Man....

Mystery Man....

A Story by chuck

It's confusing because it happens every day.
I always see him and I say hello, but he never responds
Sometimes he just stares, sometimes he has a funny grin. 
And there are moments when I feel like he gives me the evil eye.
I don't know why.

He appears to be a man with no real issues or problems.
I ask him leading questions, try to get into his head,
but he doesn't bat an eye. 
I try so hard to read his thoughts, look into his eyes to see
if I can discover anything about him.
It's irritating, frustrating, and at times, makes me angry.

Why the silent treatment? 
Why won't he acknowledge me?
I know he sees me. 
I know he hears me.

It's truly a mystery to me, 
but then I suddenly realized,
the man in the mirror is me.
