Goodbye to me

What is it about a person that makes them who they are? 
Was it something in their upbringing, or cosmically pulling them from a distant star?
Are there defining moments that dictate who we will someday be?
Or is the future of my destiny molded just by me?
If I look into the mirror and despise the sight that I behold,
Do I consider myself beholden or do I act in a way that is bold?
Can I say goodbye to all I am and toss it to the wind
Making the choice now that wipes out all those where I have sinned,
I've sinned against my patronage, I've sinned against my soul.
Each sin burns away a piece of me, until I am no longer whole.
Continuing on this path will see me washed away,
So I leave this path of nothingness and head for a new day.
Goodbye to all the failures and the way I let you down
Goodbye to the reflection that mocks you, even when it's not around.
