relax, the early worm is for the birds.


The mirror is all cloudy today
I don't know who I am.
My shadow stole my identity,
Just took me away and ran.
I don't like being who I'm not,
I'd really like me back.
But I think I'll try to be myself
No matter where my me is at.

this was a thought I had after I took a shower in the morning. When I couldn't see myself in the mirror, I wondered where I was. I may have been a bit tired.

Very nice job. This article made me think of some of the days where I'm really not myself either, and how I wanted to get the real me back. Keep writing, I really like your style and voice in your pieces.
