The Man in The Mirror

I have long struggled with what kind of person I am. People tell me I am such a nice guy yet I have a very hateful and sometimes violent side to me that only a few have seen. Constantly, I am asking myself "where is the line between the two". After seeing my reflection in the mirror, the idea came too me and this was written.

The Man In The Mirror

Cristofer Rodriguez

Who is that man?

Staring back at me Is he a part of my past?

Or who I am destined to be?

And this wretched soul

Who stands before my eyes

When I am hurt deeply

Is it him or me that cries?

Do we share each other's thoughts?

Are we one and the same?

And when I harm others

Which one of us is too blame?

Does he see me as well?

Does he know my soul?

Does he cry when he sees

It is nothing more than a black hole?

Reflection against a reflection

Like brother against brother

But which one is me?

And which one is the other?
