Trapped
When I look in the mirror, who do I see,
This person looking back, cannot be me,
She is so young, with no wrinkles or lines,
Which age and laughter have defined,
She is too young to see what I've seen,
And too fragile to have been where I've been.

Perhaps this is just all in my head,
Am i asleep now, in my bed?
Dreaming of things that cannot be real,
Am I truely as old as I feel?

Or am I simply stuck in this state,
With an adult's mind, unwilling to wait,
I look so young but I feel so old,
Life's too short, or so I've been told,
I've lived long enough, says my mind,
Yet my body claims there's more to find.

I'm like a prisoner to myself,
But there's no key, no sound to cry for help.
---------------------------------
Thankyou for reading.

I am a broken toy,
Of no use to anyone,
But if you fix me up,
I'm sure we'll have some fun.

welcome to pip!

I know someone exactly like this...

it amazes me the girl she is, for what her young eyes have seen, and where she has been...

I am sorry you have known too much at a young age..

Thanks guys, an encouraging welcome, glad to be here, been reading some of the poems here already and it's definately good stuff - got a boat load more of poems myself, but i'll try not to drown you with 'em.
