Smudge

When I look at this mirror, I don't see myself

I see both an angel and a devil

I see myself and someone else

There must be a smudge

There has to be something wrong with my mirrors.

It must have a smudge on it

That can't be me in the mirror.

Who is that?

It can't be me. 

They look so much happier.

Can that really be me?

Maybe it could be if i try to be that

Maybe it's the me I could be

Here's hoping it works.

Please work.

Please.

……………….

It will.

Kid one day it will.

I can't promise it will be good.

I can say it will get better than it was.

You see an angel and you would think I would see a devil.

I've now realized it was two angels I saw in the mirror, I just couldn't see it then.

I'll wipe the mirror and show you.

It wasn't a smudge

It's you.
