I went through a really rough time back in May. I was running from everything, and somewhere along the course of the summer that changed. This is just kind of my reflection on that...


In The Mirror

I look into the mirror;
And yet I don't see me.
A stranger gazes back,
From where my eyes should be.

There's something in those eyes,
That seems so out of place.
A foreign emotion that's not mine,
Though I know that's not the case.

I ignored my dreams for so long,
That it's torn me apart.
I'm concerned about myself for once,
And following my heart.

The determination lurking there
Really does belong.
No more fear of the future
That I've wanted all along.
