Mirror Mirror On the Wall

Mirror, mirror on the wall, is this all, is this all? Does my ruined face rob me of dignity and grace? Crows feet around my eyes don`t show that I am experienced and wise. They prove that I am invisible to guys Dark circles under my eyes don`t show that I won literature prize. They prove that my youth dies. Mirror, mirror on the wall, in my heart there is a hole. You took people`s soul. You control them all. Beauty reigns the world and I am not seen or heard.

Such a wonderful and unique poem, alas the mirror reflects the outside, its the inner you, that shines so bright.
