This is me. I'm this
My name is Me. Me is my name
I have a face and I wear it
But I have no Idea who I am
I look in The Mirror and I see her
I don't know who she is
She never stops staring at me
She looks Like she'd say something
But would I let her?
I see her face through the Looking Glass
And I see Me.

It connects to something deep within me. Perhaps in my sub-conscious. I just don't know what.

This is very confusing, which isn't a bad thing. It made it interesting and thought provoking. I liked the eerie tone; it makes the poem more facinating and enthralling.
