Mirrors
What has happened to me?
My spine
My heart
My self respect
I traded them not for
How I feel about me
But for how others feel about me.
Stay true
And they’ll feel
The way they felt
When they first loved you.
Now you are frail
And pathetic.
Return to rock
And confidence
And progress.
Return now.
I doubt I’ll ever find anyone
That cares more about something
Than themselves
And if I have discovered them
I have shunned them
