The Mirror

As I looked into the mirror
That face looked back at me

Tell me what did I see
That face staring back at me

It looked like Ive seen it before
But something about it I didn't know anymore

I heard it call out my name
But it just kept staring at me the same

Did I know you at one time I said
Or something about you that seemed unread

I still don't know who you are
Will you tell me please

It's just the inner self you see
It's you looking back at me

About this poem:
Sometimes as we get older and look in the mirror we think is that me?
