My Fading Reflection

Around my thirteenth year
My reflection started to fade.

Diagnosed with psychosis
Was hard to bear.

I remember my old reflection,
I had a definite identity.

Stolen it was by what,
I know not.

With my old self gone in the mirror,
My sense of happiness has vanished.

Was it a demon? A curse?
The ghosts of the past haunt me,

As I am a shadow of my former self,
Lost in darkness.
