Realization

“Real Eyes Realize Real Lies”

Maybe, this whole time, I had been lying to myself.

The me I see there.

Is that really me.

Or, is that who I thought was me?

I stared at myself there for countless days.

Wishing for something like change.

More and more change.

I found myself changing.

For better or for worse?

I wasn’t completely sure of that.

Until I looked at myself again in there.

The eyes which looked back at me.

They cried out to me.

The worst of me stood across from me.

The tears in there were also here.

Streaming down my face,

I scream inside my mind.

Was that really me?
