"hello..?" I called out into the dark. I heard nothing but the wind and the rain. "is anyone there?" lightning flashed, and I

saw a mirror. I aproached it and saw only my reflection. "it's you.." I said, but my reflections mouth never moved. "it's

always you.." the reflection cocked it's head to the side, seemingly confused. "who else would it be? were you expecting

someone better?" I looked away, thinking I must be hallucinating, but when I looked back, it was still there. "you know

you'll never see anyone else." the reflection said. "you'll never be someone different. you'll always be the same." "I can

dream!" I yelled, but the reflection cut me off. "dreams aren't reality! get your head out of the clouds!" I took a step back, a

mess of thoughts going through my head. "stop..! you aren't me! you can't be!" "but I am. can't you see? i've always been

you, and you will always be me." tears prick at my eyes as I move closer to the mirror. "no!" I slam my hand against it,

and slump to my knees, overcome with emotion. "you can't change reality." I look up at my reflection and get back to my

feet. "maybe not..but I can try!" in one swift movement, I throw the mirror on the ground, shattering it.

you might not be able to change reality, but maybe you can change the way you see it...
