What do you think this poem is about?

Mirrors

Shards of glass represent the past,
Its wounds are from a different place,
Beyond times that travel fast,
When I look within my own face.

It is myself that is no longer recognized,
When I looked I saw who I was going to be,
Now not only with my very own eyes,
I have became this person, and she has became me!
