Mirrors don't lie

by mimzy   Aug 13, 2006


Dimly lit room, hours she's been here
The mirror she's been staring in
Reveals his face shedding a tear
How she despised that look in his eyes

Her hand reaches to touch her cheek
To her frustration she feels his tear
Long she stares and starts to feel weak
Its him, is he really here?

Hours pass as people start to wonder
Motionless she stands, not even blinking
She knew he'd come for her someday
Hiding inside her, to never go away

Suddenly she falls to the ground
Tired of convincing herself it's a dream
Mirrors don't lie, it's him
It's him she's always been

    Another great poem. Although sometimes for me it gets confusing determining which one is he, and she. It still works though, because I can't see any other way of explaining it. I'm also just very bad at following things. Great job.
