I felt wrong today

The man in the mirror did not recognize me.

Did i lose weight? Was it my clothes? Maybe the lighting was bad

He raised his hand to the glass, as did I

He leaned in close, as if to look deeper, deeper than he ever had.

The man looked disappointed, like I was not what he wanted to see

We have shared this moment together for years, but what has changed?

He leaned in so far our heads touched

I could not see him now

I heard him crying, I didn't know what to say

I felt compelled to cry with him, so I did.
