REFLECTION

I look out my window and what do I see 
A strange reflection looking back at me 
Not a busy street that I once knew so well
Nor is it my neighbour ranting from hell

The reflection I see gets clearer and clearer
As I look it seems to be getting nearer 
The reflection is me with tears in my eyes
Living in this world it's no great surprise 

I wish the reflection was of other things 
Like the blue sky and the pleasure that brings 
Instead all I see is a portrait of a sad me 
That's the only reflection that I happen to see
