The two

The two in one room where
no light is seen except
with those two.
Those two: Me and mirror

Me...
"This is not me...
I can be more than this.
You! Stop being stupid and
be yourself, not anyone else!
Why do you keep returning?
round and round and round and round
ending up nowhere but in the same cycle
I am ashamed of you.

"Change!
Change back to when you were
innocent,
a child.
Change forward to what you
should be.
not what they tell you to be.
Scream if you have to.
Cry if you have to.
but change for the better and
do not be tempted to be
the dead fish that follow the stream.

"Be who you wished to be when you
were five,
be that child of your Maker,
blameless,
righteous,
and faithful...
I don't know how anymore...
Let me stare for a little while
more."

Mirror...
"Here you are again...
The same face with the same scars.
The same eyes with the same tears.
The same guy with the same reasons.

"Be that, what you say.
Do that, what you wish to do.

"I will be here to show you what
really is there.
But you are the one to show
yourself
what you can be.

"Confusion, desperation, frustration
your face show it all.
Yes, rest your head and stare
be calm and think."

Wait... another person
has just entered the room.
You...
What will you say?
