me

if you would care
to look into the depths
of me

please takes some notes
and tell me
what you see

I get confused
trying to see
what is really me

yesterday and beyond
I thought I was
what I was

and now
looking into the glass
was is not there

but someone
different looks
at me

I hope it it
the person
I've always strived to be

  7. I have that recurring problem each time I look in the mirror. Who is this old man? Where has that ambitious young one gone. Then I see him; it is just an old man trying to be young again.

    Excellent piece.
