Who is this woman in

the mirror?

When did her hair start

to turn grey?

What happened to the

young girl who used to

laugh and play?

 

Who is this woman in

the mirror?

When did these

wrinkles appear?

What happened to the

young girl whose parents

used to call "Dear"?

 

Who is this woman in

the mirror?

When did her eyes

dull with age?

What happened to the

young girl whose life

was an empty page?

 

Who is this woman

in the mirror?

Nice ideas in here. I would be tempted to turn the my into her, just to increase the sense of alienation cos I think its implicit that it's you. On a personal level, aging is blummin scary. I'd recommend eye drops and high lights. This girl's going down fighting ;-) x
