A Reflectionless Mirror

I realised today
That inner me and outer me
Are often two different people
People who struggle to communicate
And the conversation gets distorted
Like Chinese whispers
So inner me
The truer me
Is often misrepresented
And once you’re misrepresented
People talk to you
And judge you
As if you were someone else
And you end up feeling
Like a man wearing a mask
