sometimes i find myself lost in the mirror. lost in the story my skin tells. and my hair tells. and my eyes tell. not because i feel lost.
reflection is powerful. i look in the mirror and i see my eyes. they have never changed. my skin has aged. small wrinkles. tiny laugh lines. but the eyes. the same. 5 years old at home. 16 years old in trouble. 20 years old in an apartment. 25 years old alone. today. me.
no matter what i am doing. who i am pleasing. who i change for. they will always be there. people change. come into my life. serve their purpose. leave. or stay.
my eyes are the constant.
i hope my eyes get that message to my heart. my brain. my will. my soul.
