i stand here looking at myself in the mirror
there are somedays i look and i see myself
as i used to be someone who knew things
someone different than who i am today
someone through my looking glass

i dwell on the thought of myself as i was
thinking what would have been could have been
and i cry thinking of who i once was never again
there will never be another time another place
someone through my looking glass

how much time will i have left to me
where i can sit and see my other self
how much time do i have left to even know
was there ever another self in the looking glass
someone through my looking glass

i feel myself fading each time i look now
the remnants of who i was slowly disappear
i look and see a shadow a ghost of who i was
she is gone the woman i knew in the looking glass
someone through my looking glass

There are these moments when we realize that we are different from how we used to be, embrace this moment and go ahead. Life is Now, we are meant to act now, and we are meant to act out of Love, also Love for ourselves. And suddenly we mirror only beauty.

Good write.

Love,
Margherita
