MirrorA Poem by ktim
I look in the the mirror each and every day,
ask myself that same question before I walk away. Nobody answers, the mystery stays the same. As a child I asked who am I anyway? I still ask who am I to this day. My mind feels like a maze swallowed by decay, the happiness I felt as a child has completely gone away. I ask the shadows if they know my name, I wanna know my name today. I'm asking who am I anyway? I walk down the street and everybody looks away, it's like they sense inside i'm really not ok. These monsters eat at me everyday. Who am I anyway? Why am I not ok? These voices claim i'm somebody different everyday, one day me, the next who am I anyway? Why am I cursed to live this way, am I a child gone insane? thats why I look in the mirror each day, to beg the voices please go away. Who are you anyway? Who I on this day? Who are we anyway?
