Lost

I look in the mirror and what do I see?
A reflection of a girl who I do not recognize.
She seems so lost, so very lost.
Someone help her find the way, the way to what she seeks.

Her eyes tell a story that only I can read.
The story of her life and what it has become.
She seems so scared, so very scared.
My heart breaks as I watch her tremble.

I want to reach out and help this poor girl.
Help her find her way to what she seeks.
Realization sinks in as I reach out to her.
This poor girl is only me.
