Mirror Poem by Travis Nunez

I look in the mirror
And what do I see?
I see me,
A man with empty hopes and dreams

Why am I quiet?
Why am I scared?
Why cant I love myself,
the way i loved you?

I look in the mirror
And what do i see?
I see a man
Full of ambition,
But is afraid to break free

I look in the mirror
And what do i see?
I see me, Travis Jacob Nunez,
Who's trying to be set free

'Love yourself' I say
'Be yourself! ' I yell
'Don't be afraid' I whisper

For when I look in the mirror
I see a man,
With endless hopes a dreams
