Me? 

The sun sets,

So many colors yet 

I only feel black and 

White. 

Eyes full of light but

Only see darkness. 

Memories talk to me 

Left and right crossing 

Each other. 

My mind so crowded can’t tell

Which direction I’m going. 

Smoking a cigarette, 

Lit from the fire inside my heart. 

Two puffs, looking in the mirror

Who are you I ask? 

I am you, the mirror answers!
