The reminiscing

I watch the raindrops fall in front of my eyes
I see the inverted reflection of my disguise.
The roles I've played and left undone,
I forget the last as I move to the next one.

But in the reflection I look into my own eyes.
The memory of time passes me by
I see tears of sorrow and joy,
I slowly realize how I came to this point.
The tears fall but I don’t start crying
I suddenly feel a lack of life
I've given up chances without even trying
The feeling of loss stabs like a knife.

Just then the rain stops to fall,
I close my eyes... forget it all
I stand still as the memory fades away
So I can go back to the role I have to play
