POETRY: MIRROR

Share

Mirror on the wall;

Always showing what we look like within its wall

A true pointer to what men are really are

You smile, laugh, cry, weep, and frown when we do

You are there when it is smooth and rough

Also when friends hid the truth behind

The only lie you ever told is

Image on the right is left

That is imperfection.

Mirror on the wall;

With you we address our faults

A trainer for boldness and courage

You show that man who wants to stab from the back

You gave back the light when presented to you

You are also missing when in darkness

The only matter with you is

You made man a puzzle to solve when broken

That is imperfection.
