mirror
I look in the mirror to check on my make up,
but when i look,
i don't see me.
Instead i see someone else standing there,
staring back at me.
The girl I see is sad with pain,
and longs to be loved,
but there's no love for her.
So i stand there, and look in the mirror,
Just to see this girl looking right back at me.
Then i realize, it's me.
But I'm hidden.
I'm hidden behind the make-up,
the accerioses,
the hair and clothes,
and i ask myself
"who am i anymore?"
In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
