a new face to live with

i wake up

as someone else.

i look into the mirror

and don't

recognize my face.

my eyes

are of a different color.

where is the blue?

my skin

is pale. younger.

whose ears are these.

whose

hair?

should i go back to bed

and start

over,

or live with it?

i've been tired of myself

for some time

now. perhaps,

this would be a good change.

no one will

know me.

all of my mistakes will be

erased.
