The Mirror

I SEE A PICTURE ON A WALL A FACE STARES BACK AT ME A FACE SO SAD AND LONELY I WONDER WHO IT CAN BE I GAZE INTO THOSE SORROWED EYES I WONDER WHAT THEY SEE AND THAT IS WHEN I REALISE IT'S MY FACE LOOKING BACK AT ME A MIRROR HANGS UPON THE WALL MY FACE ITS SAD REFLECTION I KNOW WHY SADNESS AND SORROW THERE I KNOW IT'S SAD REJECTION SO, NO MORE,MIRROR ON THE WALL WILL I LOOK WITH BLIND DEJECTION I FORCE A SMILE UPON MY LIPS REFLECTED IN MY REFLECTION
