Who is this stranger in the mirror

Staring back at me

I have no clue how she got in here

Or who she could be

Though I’ve seen her many times in the past

It’s all still so unclear

Her presence seems to fade away fast

Each time that she appears

But when she’s here in front of me

I feel so good inside

Although I still wondersho she is

And why sometimes she hides

I wonder how she gets in here

Without ever being seen

There doesn’t seem to be much she fears

At least that’s how it seems

I’ve only heard her speak once or twice

In a manner that’s so mature

She’s someone I’ve grown to like

If only I really knew her

If only I could understand

Why she’s only in my reflection

If only I could understand

Why the mirrors are her protection

Maybe it’s because I’m  the only one she trusts

To cover her up when she needs to be hid

But why is it me that she trusts

When I’m still just a kid

As I think of thsi girl in front of my eyes

Staring desperately back at me

I come to know and realize

That this girl I don’t know is me
