I look in the mirror and see my face
But I see another reflection taking place
I know that fear is only in my mind
It's starting to take over all of my time
I went to wash my face
It was only like staring in a empty space
The reflection frightened me
The emptiness in her eyes confused me
No light in her eyes
Wondering if she's looking at the sky
It's the shadow that follows me threw these dark streets
The haunting, paranoid, manic skipping heartbeat
The one that's staring at me now
The one I try to escape but never seem to work out
I don't know when it will end
I don't know where to find my friend
All my thoughts have been spoken
Handing over a token
Watching as it gets near
My face has become wet from tears
I've been waking up to a different life
With a creature from the nightlife
It's most feared nightmare
Is for me not to be scared
Growing out, afraid and alone
Quickly realizing I was on my own
I kept growing out with no love in sight
Still crying endlessly every night
The person inside, who could it be
The one who wants nothing more than to be free

I would like to translate this poem
I think that the eternal search for freedom is a driving force in so many things that we do; its what we all want deep inside. If you have a vision of who you want to be, you are so close to realising it. Beautiful wite.
