Reflection

What do you see when you look at yourself in the mirror?/You see yourself?/ That's a normal answer/ But I'm not normal/ I see anger, joy, confusion, hatred/ I see way more in me than anyone can ever see/ Can you look at yourself from the outside and see inner pain/  But I see a lot more than me/ I see lives that I can change/ People crying on the streets begging for the things I have/ I see my imperfections though/ I have to see it/ I have no choice but to see it/ I have to be bold enough to fess up to my actions/  Why hide things from yourself when you already know/ Embrace it/ Now look in the mirror again and tell me what do you see
