Who am I?

In the mirror is a reflection
Of someone we claim to know
In the mirror is a reflection
Of someone neither friend nor foe

Trying to do the impossible
Pour the rain into a cloud
Trying to do the impossible
Making one a crowd

A new beginning in every prayer
We wish for something new
A new beginning in every prayer
A selfish one just for you

Look into the window pane
And watch the rain drops slide
Look into the window pane
They are the tears that build up inside

Ask your self the same old question
The answer you cannot deny
Ask yourself the same old question
...Who am I?


Long time after posted EDIT NOTE: Well, turns out this poem was good enough to get published in the book "A Celebration Of Poets." I'm so happy.(:
