The Look of the Past
I look into the mirror,
 I see the face of the past me,
 and the face of the present me.
 Past me looks at present me,
 a strange look in her eye,
 is it sadness?
 is it disappointment?
 is it shame?
 Why does past me feel that,
 way when she looks at me?
 Did I let her down,
 did I let myself down with the way,
 I am living?
 Is she disappointed in me,
 because i am living a life,
 that is suspended? 
 that I am not really living,
 is that what it is?
 I look into the mirror,
 I see the face of the past me,
 and the face of the present me.
 Past me looks at present me,
 a strange look in her eye,
 I want to change it,
 I want to fix it,
 I just wish I knew how.
