Mirror Mirror On the Wall

By poe_lover28

Mirror Mirror on the wall
You are the most truthful of them all
they tell me that im perfectly fine
but i know you will not feed me this line

Mirror Mirror on the wall
why must i always fall?
why must rainbows always clear
leaving me with all this drear

Mirror Mirror on the wall
She is the fairest of them all
She knocks me down, and bullies me
why though, i cannot see

Mirror Mirror on the wall
I am the outcast of them all
my clothes more ragged, nails painted black
please tell me i dont have to go back

Mirror Mirror on the wall
I cant even walk, they make me crawl
My soul is drained, theres nothing left
They took it all, a sheer crime of theft

Mirror Mirror on the wall
there is no one i can call
im all alone in this grey world
too many times ive been tossed and hurled

Mirror Mirror on the wall
Im about to end it all
tired of all this catastrophe
Nobody wants me to be

Mirror Mirror on the wall
My depression will not allow me to stand tall
To be or not to be, may that be the question
My answer being: You'll find me in hell,
suicides dont get into heaven.

  • A former member wrote: It's really an emotional Poem. I guess something more too. If you are in depression you really need to prevent. Here are some steps by which you can do it as I already a beneficiary person. http://www.wikihow.com/Prevent-Depression John www.texascustommirrors.com

  • A former member wrote: This poem really made me think. Because I suffer from depression, I can empathize with you. You did a good job in expressing your emotions through poetry. Keep up the good work!

  • A former member wrote: what a emotional poem

  • A former member wrote: The rhyming was excellent. The ending was harsh and brutal. The subject of the poem was personal which really shows that these words have meaning. Great write!

    thank you romantic!

  • A former member wrote: You know you can always talk to me my dear. A truly tragic piece, all the more so for knowing you the way I do.

  • A former member wrote: the rhyme was done great... from what I thought, to what I found, two different worlds... there are ways to use that energy beyond finishing the bullies work for them... why make it easier on them? why take it easy on them?

    I'm glad i stumbled onto this because it's so painfully beautiful. Alone, hurt, and entrapped in a world with no aspirations...i know how you feel. Great read love the rhyme scheme and rhythm to this.

  • A former member wrote: It's so true how others take a toll on us. Love this piece, such a sad yet incredibly true story.

    Being thrown over the line and dragged out of view of it a few times, I know how the worst of pains can be. You have a pretty clear view of the lost, numb soul trying to feel, trying to be. Very good write

    I know how this poem made me feel, like we are kindred souls. I have suffered over 45 years in depression. Sometimes in my poetry it is like a conflict goes on within my mind which words will come put first. this is a wonderful interpretation of depression and longing to just find acceptance within our ownselves.
