boldMan in the Mirror

Days roll by
Time flies
The die is cast
Like a forced actor he finds himself amongst the cast
Life is a stage, he has to act
It's love, it's religion, it's school and all
And all with the man in the mirror

He reads his script
Line by line he eats
The words to him he reads
The problem he sees
This is not the only script
For the different folks and times it seems a new
Just like the man in the mirror

He ponders
Tired out by his travails he wonders
"How did it get here?",
It seem, "there is nothing I can do", he fears
"Lord, help me" he begs
"Stop and look" he hears
"Look to the man in the mirror"

He cleans his tears
Staring at the image and back it stares
How harsh it seemed to stare!
Seeing his thoughts and feelings and still it could hear
His passion, his dreams and even his fears
It was he, he was
the man in the mirror

Thoughts, memories and plans it seemed to bring
He and it, this seems surreal
Shortcomings and errors made so clear
Even know he could hear
Mistakes and despair burnt into the air
Motivation and action this path he now treads
Oh! How nice it was!
To finally meat the real MAN IN THE MIRROR

I really hope you liked it. @tuanis @a-0-0 @tcpolymath @minnowsupport @utopia
