You Are So Beautiful

You are so beautiful like Helen of Troy So brainy, special, and unique Nobody can compete you Her smiling reflection answered from the mirror She was lost in her own eyes Bang!! From no where a stone strike the mirror Shattering it into many pieces She cried___ who is there? Looked around, saw nobody Sitting on the ground to have one closer look at the mirror again She saw distorted, ugly images of her self Turning her face away, she got up To find out who shattered her world From behind a huge rock She heard some voices Barefooted, she moved forward, And heard the exact words which the mirror had told her Now it was telling them to a young boy How brave, intelligent, & smart you are Like Odin of an old folk tale She knew the mirror was lying It lied to her and now to him She picked a stone and hit the mirror Bang!! And then there was nothing Except ugliness, weakness, imperfections Just Like the real world She moved forward leaving marks of blood footprints And shattered mirror behind
