Mirror, mirror, what do you see?

I move my hand gently over the mirror
I carefully study my reflection
My reflection looks like a different person
He does not resemble me..
When I feel tears cleansing my face
He seems to be smiling peacefully
When I feel ants biting continuously at my heart
He seems to be smiling peacefully
When I feel silence breathing upon me
He seems to be smiling peacefully
When I feel loneliness embracing me dearly
He seems to be smiling peacefully
When I feel the weight of others' sorrows
He seems to be smiling peacefully
When I feel suffocated in an empty space
He seems to be smiling peacefully..


I want to help him
I try breaking the mirror
I first use my fists
That have turned softer by wiping away tears
I then use my heart
Which has become the hardest part of my body
And only then does it hit me
I am the one trapped inside the mirror
I am the one trapped with the truth
He is living happily in the outside world
He is living happily with a lie
I want to help him
I need to break this mirror
Can someone help me please?
Or rather, can someone help him please?
