I looked in the mirror today and did not know the face starring back at me. Where did the all the worry lines come from that now envelope this pale reflection of a person? Wasn’t it just yesterday the eyes looking back were bright with hope and dreams; not dull from all they have been forced to see?
Severed ties and an incomplete existence, at some point, have taken their toll. Ripping away the naivety and replacing it with calculated brutality. Is this what life really is, understanding of aloneness, absence? Maybe though...just maybe....this is just transitory and there is still an ember smoldering deep...this, time will truly show.
