THE LATEST INHABITANT

Reflections of the Lost Soul

I find myself in front of the mirror and see a figure I do not recognize, perhaps it has come back to me to tell me what I must do, but I feel useless watching that figure staring at me. I do not think I can take my eyes off it, but perhaps that is exactly where I need to look, into that figure that stares at me without showing any emotion; it unsettles me.

I want more

A connection, a sign, a provocation. Instead, nothing: an aseptic, fearless, and cold mummy, with a challenging air, intimidates me. I have a feeling of tiredness that makes me confused; I no longer have the perception of what surrounds me, I live this moment of inadequacy and I do not know why. How can a figure I do not know cause me all this? What has triggered in me to take away my inner strength? What was I looking for in that mirror, perhaps my identity weakened by a dark reality that no longer belongs to me as before, perhaps the people I thought I knew, the goals never reached, a friendly voice in a deafening noise, or perhaps just a child who did not want to grow up.

I feel lost

Now that you are no longer here; I look for you, but I cannot find you. I stare at that mirror hoping to find your gaze again, but nothing, I can no longer see you.

This sounds familiar to me. Can be because I always avoided to look in the mirror or I lost myself on the road while growing up/older?

My guess is many will recognize this althoygh it's rarely mentioned.

Good to read you here.

Growing up, opens a little sad phase for us. It gets fun sometimes but many times it confuses our former younger self.

To be honest all I wanted was to get old. I never liked being a child and never felt a child. Too much responsibilities on my shoulders.

Awwwwww so sorry love, so now is adult life the way you expected it to be or you are just indifferent over it outcome.

Each single day I am happy I am an adult I was from the day my first was born. And now I am hapoy I am getting old so the world forgets about me which means more freedom. 😉

This is creatively deep, it is life and it reflection back at us, a little sense of regret but in all a true human, wanting more and wanting his effect felt for good. Also reminded me of Man in the mirror by Michael Jackson.

Thank you, @yaladeeds, for your thoughtful commentary on “Reflections of the Lost Soul.” You are a woman of great sensitivity. Your connection to "Man in the Mirror" moved me. Your ability to perceive the struggle and desire for positive impact described in my post is not for everyone. Thank you!
