Not Your Reflection

Not Your Reflection

I’m the crack

in your perfect face,

The smudge

on the holy page.

I hide in the shadows

you try to erase —

Your secret sins,

your silent rage.

Look… look…

look into me!

I hold the truth you’ll never see.

Look… look…

can’t you feel?

I’m the wound that never heals.

I’m not your reflection —

I’m your verdict!

Shatter the glass,

but I still speak.

You can’t escape

what you can’t forget —

I’m the voice inside,

I’m the dark you keep!

I’m the lie you

told to survive,

The ghost you feed

to stay alive.

I carve my name

where your fears reside —

Your god, your jail,

your hidden pride.

Look… look…

look into me!

I’m the key

To what you’ll never be.

Look… look…

can’t you see?

I’m the master —

you’re the slave.

I’m not your reflection —

I’m your verdict!

Shatter the glass,

but I still speak.

You can’t escape

what you can’t forget —

I’m the voice inside,

I’m the dark you keep!

I was scared to see myself…

But you smiled

back from the dark.

Now the mirrors scream your name —

There’s no hiding

from the truth you claim!

I’m not your reflection —

I’m your verdict!

Break every mirror —

I still speak!

You’re the shadow,

I’m the light —

I’m the end you can’t deny!

Now you see…

now you’re me…

I speak… I speak… I speak…
