April Poem: "More than a mirror."

I've been encouraged to continue with these poems.  So I am.



More than a mirror.



Who am I?

Your friend.  I know that
much.  I suppose I should care.

I don’t.  I’ve been too many people’s friends.

It’s a losing game.  I never win.

So yeah, I’m your friend.

But I’m my friend too and that
comes first.

So yeah, I’m your friend.
For now.
