reflection in the mirror

by Antwan Fields - Aries

i wake up and walk into the bathroom
and there is my reflection just watching me
i smile, it smiles, i frown, it frowns and it watches me intently, so we watch each other, we blink at the same time
i think to myself "my reflection doesn't look bad
but why is it sad when im feeling sad?
i feel as if the reflection is me 
and i am it, i can only see
my reflection stares at me, figuring me out
it follows my every move, right down to my pout
and when i wash my face and bring my towel down
there's my reflection, trying to get around
i feel at one with my mirror image
and when i'm refreshed, ready to go to school
my image turns on its heel 
and walks away too.
