When you look at yourself,
What do you see?

Do you see yourself?
Or do you see who you want to see.
What you want to be.
Who you could be.

Can I be who I want to be?
Live up the standards I've set.
Be happy with myself.
Enjoy life,
And live it to the fullest.

Enjoy each day,
Not regret it.
Be happy with what I see,
Can it ever be?

Reflections of your past,
Mirror those of the future.
Is this who I will be,
Or can I still change?

Maybe I can still change
Start new, become who I want to be.

When I look in the mirror sometimes I see who I hope that I am. I can never be too sure. What do I really look like? Who am I really? I could always lie to myself and make myself be who I want to be. I can never realy know who or what I am. I can't even trust what other people tell me because I could be deaf to the truth.

But sometimes I think I catch a glimpse of my true self and I'm taken aback because it's never what I expect. I could be better. I could be worse.
