Mirror
Mother said the best she had
Perfection does not seem far
A smooth beautiful aura he has
Dark emotions as a night horizon afar
Touched by affections towards world
Drawn back by life’s limits
Yearns to reach out the world
With hands short as life limits
Light spirited as a cat
Accepting fate for his lacks
Expecting someday shall be dashed
And come all the dreams had
Seen by self as shade
Glaring as the darkness fades
Smiling at the mirror blade
Staring at me his mirror shade
