A stranger greets me in the morning glass.
He blinks with me,
he shadows every move I make.
The memories are mine,
the thoughts, the fears,
the hands that lift my coffee cup — mine.
But the face is his.

Who is he?
And who, then, am I?

A human is the inner and the outer intertwined —
a story carved in wrinkles,
scars,
a quiet smile.
My story has been wiped clean.
In its place — a blank page
written in someone else’s hand,
with someone else’s features.

I cannot trust my reflection.
I cannot trust the eyes of others,
for they speak to him, not me.
I’ve become a ghost
wearing a borrowed body,
seeing the world through borrowed eyes.

Am I an error?
A bug left in the code of reality?
A line someone forgot to erase?

An error is something that shouldn’t exist,
something that breaks the system.
But I exist.
I breathe.
I think.
I feel this tearing contradiction inside me.

Maybe I am neither.
Not a man,
not a mistake.
I am a question posed to a shattered mirror —
a walking paradox,
a proof that the “I” is not what is seen,
but what fights to break through
the mask of someone else’s face.
