The Man In The Mirror

I always wanted to do great things. I always wanted to change the world.

I always move forward to a Destiny that shapes the future. I wanted the world to be a better place.

I tried to change and did everything. But after I achieved it, I knew I was wrong.

The only way to change the world is to change myself. If I wanted to change others, I have to start with myself. I was doing fine all along, until I decided others should change to fit the system.

Yes the world is not perfect, but still, I was a good man.

I had everything. Not riches, not fame but I had a love so true.

But all my actions have done nothing but to taint it and ruin it.

I became selfish, not understanding, I became everything I sought out to destroy in others in the first place.

Before I ruin myself and my love further, before I lose every aspect of my soul, I must stop.

I must look back and find myself again. It is so difficult because I have forgotten. But it is locked deep within the abyss of my memories and my heart. I will unlock them and feel them again.

To change the world, I have to change myself. I have to learn the way of giving in, the way of unreciprocation. I want to relearn how to do things without getting anything in return. I want myself back.

Being popular, rich or whatsoever is not important. Though I have all of that now, I am not happy. What's important is I retain myself, the Man In The Mirror.

I will achieve it. Being the good man, being the one for you. For this is what I promised you.
