Mirror

Take a knife,mend it on my Face But my mirror says i look the same Set me on fire ANd my mirror will tell you i look better What do you see? My mirror sees better and clearer You will never understand The kind of man i am On less you be my mirror And judge me the way i am My lady be my mirror show me how to love Be there when i rise and fall Be the mirror that you are Show me who i am.... Be my reflection Not my distraction Be my correction.... The world never seem to see BE my mirror My mirror never hurts me It corrects me softly and gently BE MY MIRROR And show me the true me (inspired by the song mirror).......

Hi Prince, Such a neat concept for a poem. Mirrors are something to take with a grain ofd salt for we can't help what it says. Wish it were different.

This sir is poetry at its finest. I really love the first two lines but the four ending lines capture too. I found my mirror, and here is to hope that all can. Excellent.
