Reflection Poem by Travis Johnson

I’m looking in the mirror
All I see is this face
That people don’t like
And that people really hate
When I try to switch
They don’t see the change
So they stare at my past
Then whisper that’s always gonna be his way
Now people don’t trust me
They don’t think I’m kind
They say the lonely line I’m walking
Is looking pretty fine
So this is me standing outside
And I’m looking inside
And all the bad things I heard
I am taking it as a sign
So I’m saying right now
What you said I noticed
But the only thing I can do
Is try to be more focused
I’m sorry if you can’t sleep at night
Or if you cry yourself to sleep
I jus wanna let you know
If anything happens blame it all on me
