A glance in the mirror
And what do I see?
A face with a passing
Resemblance to me.

And I wonder right then
If there are two of me
The one in the mirror
The other, others see.

The diffident youth
The grown ups did see
And the confident man
That’s become the new me.

Two characters existing
One and one equals me
Looking out with reflection
Looking back’s all I see.

But I know the difference
The two I can see.
On the one hand reflection
On the other it’s me.

Under my skin
I am a twin
Within.

    Hope this doesn’t sound like I’m schizophrenic! (Which I’m not!😳)

    Wonderful. No, it doesn't sound schizophrenic at all.
