Mirror Mirror

Someone's mirror.

Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the greatest
Of them all?
It's her, she's the best
She doesn't need him
Even if he lies
In her face...
It doesn't work that way,
She's my best friend..
She will look in the mirror
And see that he doesn't know
What he's missing
So mirror mirror,
Please help her get her
Self esteem back
Because to her its broken
Just like her heart

Author's Note

This is for my friend and any girl that feels broken because of a guy. Trust me its not worth it.

I like the premise of this, the mirror mirror line. The message of these broken feelings is clear. I seem to be on a role of criticism today, though, so here goes. I've said this to quite a few writers on here, you shouldn't be too obvious with your wording. What sets a poem apart from another's is fresh ideas, perspectives and imagery. When one's goals and failures are splattered out so blatantly line by line in a poem, it lessens it's impact. However, as I say, you do very well in communicating the message of the girl's feelings.

I hope she reads this and understands... a wise write.

Great poem. A lot of people don't know what they have until it's gone. If only we all had a mirror to give self esteem back.

I love this poem about self-worth, and self-esteem. People shouldn't rely on others to make them happy. A teacher told me once never love for a person who you feel will complete you. Because once they leave, you will become a wreck, a shell of your former self. Complete yourself, form a strong sense of self!

i never had a boyfriend but my heart has been crushed by several guys. now i read this and your note. and i think, 'wow, this it true. many of my friends also have to deal with stupid guys that don't even notice how good they r.' i especially like the part that says that the guy doesn't know what he's missing. and i agree, tell your friend that someday, she'll find someone that will be worth it

Very very nice poem, it speaks truth. Wish I had this when my ex broke up with me. I was crying for hours. First love.

I really like this poem!! It's something every girl should read while going through a break up! Great job!

i would have to agree with Ocean fire that if you want to start a poem that rhymes at the beginning that it should at least rhyme at the end great subject though
