  ( A Reflection )  Just Like Me







 [ 1st v: ]





Just what
What was I suppose to see




A reflection
A direct reflection of what use to be
A yesterdays view
Of me




Was that how I use to be
But .... somehow
Something is very different
I just may see a reflection
Of some of the ways I use to be




How I use to feel
But my emotions were deep
Unlike you .... very real




[ 1st ch: ]





I can not
I will not
Believe
You could ever
Ever .... be like I was
Be like me
Feel like I use to feel




Because I could never .... too true
Never
Have been as cruel as you




So empty .... so cold
To act like there is pain
Where there is nothing




A difference is what one feels
Is not the same
As your cold cruel game





A mirror reflection of me
Could be
Could have been
But you missed the mark
Right from the start




Because what you see
Is .... me
What you could never see
Is that you are
What was once .... to be
Just like me





[ 2nd v: ]





Who
Just who could
Understand




Just what you feel
Other than
Someone who knows




Just where it is at
Where it was
Just how .... it goes





You were too blind to see
A reflection of yourself
Once upon a time ....
In .... me




[ 2nd ch: ]





I can not
I will not
Believe
You could ever
Ever .... be like I was
Be like me




Feel like I use to feel





Because I could never .... too true
Never
Have been as cruel as you





So empty .... so cold
To act like there is pain
Where there is nothing




A difference is what one feels
Is not the same
As your cold cruel game





A mirror reflection of me
Could be
Could have been
But you missed the mark
Right from the start





Because what you see
Is me
What you could never see
Is that you are
What once was .... to be
Just like me





[ close out ]






So it goes away
Leaving you behind
Just where ....
Where you chose to be
Now you know
I would have done different
And you no more
Are anything .... like me
Nothing there .... just like me

Inspired by : The one who took me by surprise .... but when I tried to reveal to him quite some time ago, that there is a connection, a past ..... entwined from another time. he did not get it, not chose to get it.  But, after I had enough time to look at what had happened between the two of us... the emotions he felt and I felt ... he felt what I use to for someone else and how I would react emotionally with that person ... although I would never in any lifetime have hurt that person , the one I cared too deeply for. The person now, behavior is not like mine nor past like mine were ... he is very cruel and cold, but acts like he is so hurt....the hurt he pretended to feel is how I use to feel. But that pain came from a very deep true love. This person I know now, is incapable of having an ounce of emotion.
