mini me

There seem to be days when even your own reflection raises questions. You look at a familiar face, but inside everything is blank: the cards have been discarded, the role has been lost, the hero's costume hangs empty. And so, once again, you find yourself casting yourself in the morning: who are you today - confident, tired, lively, or pretending? The word ‘don't’ rings in your head, as if someone is gently holding you back from doing something foolish - or from looking too honestly in the mirror. It all seems simple: exhale, choose a mask, adjust the angle of your smile. But underneath it all, that same ‘mini me’ is still stirring, that tiny version that once believed that being yourself doesn't hurt.
