Darling, look in the mirror
What do you see?
A broken girl with limp hair
Tired eyes and hollowed cheeks
Pale lips and protruding collarbones
Daring, look in the mirror
What do you see?
A flick of silver and blossoming red
Regretful eyes and shaking hands
White lace stained and water drops
Darling, look in the mirror
What do you see?
Red skin and balled fists
Blotchy water drops and anguished cries
The loud sound of bone on tile and pain
Darling, look in the mirror
What do you see?
Furrowed eyebrows and quickened hands
Cloth thrown over silver and doors closing
White lace wiping under eyes and shouts
Darling, look in the mirror
What do you see?
Doors thrown open and rose petals discovered
Hands wiping and words flying
Pained tears flowing and guilty looks stuttering
Darling, look in the mirror
What do you see?
A trip to isolation and things swiped away
Yelled words from family and silence from her
The why's and the...
Darling, look in the mirror
What do you see?
An unwanted marriage
