In the mirror

By SoPrecious

  I cry - as i am full of error

Or so I am told by the crack in the mirror

This should not be me, "who am I?" I ask

I feel as if I'm trapped behind a black mask..

Yes,a mask, a mask of ugly pain-

From my eyes flow down cold tears of rain

I now see what I will never be...

    A very unique perspective of a broken you. Flaws seem to prefect you because it bleeds out strongly in your writing. Such an amazing read! Bows- Scholar

We all have reasons to hide from ourselves and sometimes the mirror knows just how to kick you while you're down. Write on, and I hope you find some comfort here. Scholar
