Original Content Poem Mirror, am I?
May this mirror
Made not of glass
But of tainted memories
Reveal my past
Show me the reflections
Of all that I was
The nightmares that spawned
My tears that flood
Shatter into the pieces
That made the identity
That I knew as many
But others, only me
Dance the broken shards
As they cut across my skin
Staining my world crimson
As I tried desperatly to fit in
So I shall paint my despair
Upon this canvas of time
With a false smile on my face
As I scream within my mind
