Who amI

Who is that face, looking back at me,

As I stand in front of the mirror?

She seems familiar, I've seen her before...

I know her!!!

But as I look closer, look under the surface,

I realise I was wrong, I don't know her at all...

I just thought I did, a long time ago.

I'm eager to find out about her, asking her questions,

Searching her soul, but I don't find anything.

I don't understand. I look closer, I know her!!!

I see her face every morning, in the mirror,

In pictures, in memories...that's ME!

Who am I?

Why don't I recognise myself?

Where is that happy girl of 12?

Who is this cold, sophisticated stranger, standing there,

Mocking me....it's me... but who am I?
