Mirror
July 27, 2011
Something happened to me today,
A change was made,
To me today.
It was odd,
It was strange,
To look in the mirror and see an adult.
Though for years,
I’ve acted like one,
Thought like one,
Tried to be like one,
I never saw one reflected in the mirror.
I still saw the child,
The kid,
The laughter,
The funny little games,
That once they were gone,
Would be gone forever.
I saw an adult in the mirror today,
It was odd,
It was strange,
And somehow,
It was me.
