Guilt and lies
Treachery and broken ties
That’s what I see written on the face looking back at me
Fear and pain
Tears running like rain
Everything etched in the lines drawn by time
Happiness and hope
A stubborn will to cope
They can be found too because the image is true
childish freedom
scars of wisdom
It’s all there for me to see
Time will tell
If I know this stranger well
I don’t think it’s me
But it could be
