Mirror, Mirror

I pass by, as I eye, my eye; I see something nearer, nearer; On the wall a reflection of myself, myself; it isn't clear so, never clearer; As I look upon the mirror, mirror; Mirror polished metal or glass with an; Amalgam back and as a TV I've gain weight, weight; Look at my face I can see my soul in my eyes, eye; Is this something that showing my true self, myself; All I have is what I see what I reflex, relax; And if I were to break this glass, my fears will last; Thirteen years of bad luck, bad luck; I see myself and in my reflection I say yuck-yuck; I've been concaved, been convex; All I have is my refection left; Crystal and glass I can see myself, myself; I'm I pattern for limitation exemplar, exemplar; As I continue to see myself in the mirror; Your a faithful reflection of a true picture of myself Mirror, Mirror 09/20/17 --for Craig Cornish Mirror Mirror Poetry Contest

Yes we see our true selves in the mirror. Yes we do not like what we see sometimes. I just talk to my reflection and say... Hey! Have a nice day. Have a nice evening my friend.

We're all men(women) in the mirror. The good or bad not the reflexing it's starts in the heart and mindset choice. Thanks for the read and the like James :D
