No more.
There in the mirror
Who's there isn't me
She stares back
Oh just please let me be
A beautiful face
I can see her there
Though I can't reach out
I'm very aware
The way that she stands
Screams "I'm important"
The look she gives says
You're not worth it
I wish that she'd stop
And leave me alone
But I just stand there and stare
'Till all my flaws are shown
I don't understand
Why my mirror doesn't work
The woman standing there
She has quite some perk
While my limbs are weak
Hers are strong
My heart is broken
And hers, nothing is gone
So I'll turn off the lights
And quietly close the door
So the woman in the mirror
Will bother me no more.

PoetryJust words that flow A river in my head It twists and turns And never stays the same The current is strong You can never go back Pen it down And remember The joy of the ride Through the rough bumpy tide That are the words In my mind.
