Mirror Image

You know the morning routine.

You run around your bedroom, bouncing back and forth between your closet drawers and your self-made study station. I'm usually hopping on one leg, throwing on my boots and scarf, while grabbing my book bag, bulging with schoolbooks. I turn to go, but catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror.

Oh, there I am. And I wonder as I stare back at that frazzled, hazel-eyed girl,

Who are you? Perhaps, just maybe one day I will have the answer.
