Poem: Can't Recognize the Reflection in the Mirror

I stare at myself in the mirror
Unable to recognize the reflection I see
Where is that girl that's full of life
The girl with the confidence and drive
The desire for greatness and success
Not just as words in the air
But as actions that lead to change
Where did that person go?
Why was she replaced with someone
Who wants change but does nothing
Or doesn't try hard enough to make it happen?
