reflection
it's easy to talk about what we don’t understand
create shortcut stories we like to replace reality
and criticize people that we can’t stand
or at least that's what I see
today I wasn’t quite me
when I looked at my reflection
it was like I became another entity
the image in my head reached perfection
and for a minute i almost believed I could flee
the surprise got me back to my chair
and I was again me
but for a minute I swear ,,,
my eyes burned with determination
my face was steady and I had a goal
I was not afraid or hiding away from every temptation
I think for a minute I was more alive than ever ,whole
and then it crossed my mind maybe that's was always me
maybe when I was young people hated me a lot
that I hide with everything that I can see
maybe I was just good at hiding not getting caught
