Starting to look like my old self
Or young self
And when I steal a glance
In a random reflection
I have seen
The crazy haired
Listening
Clean slate
Child
That has been there
All along
Long time,
No see-
eyes were always grey.
Seriously-
is that the same
insides out?
Born that way
They say
It goes that way, life
Mirrors...
What?
Again,
an echo reiterates.
Or so it seems slated,
Starting Over and I
Was Here
As if carved into
A tree.
