Reflection - by Erik Smith
Look
in the mirror
Can you see your soul?
Can't you see that hole?
Don't you see you're cold?
You think you're perfect, don't you
You believe you're going somewhere too
You want the best for yourself, don't you
You'll never get near your goals will you
Look in the mirror again
Beginning to see it?
The hopelessness provided by society?
The hatred inside both you and me?
You help people to make yourself feel better
You cater to others to cater yourself
That makes you a good person, doesn't it?
What are you thinking while you're helping these people
"I'm so much better than you"
Why else would they need the help?
"You don't know how to do this, here"
You're smarter and better and on a higher level
Are you?
Look in the mirror once more
Are you actually just a whore?
Do you really have a soul?
Have you succumbed to the mire and "finer parts" of society?
Do you have any answers now?
