In A Mirror
A Poem by
Shadows Ember
As I look in the mirror What do I see A girl in a box Longing to be free She doesn't speak She simply sits there Alone with a face of no glee

Short but expressive. Nicely done.

Few words that can say it all! It's simple. Sometimes what we see is pretty simple but we look at it; not see it. Beautifully penned! Dark and simple!
She doesn't speak
She simply sits there
Alone with a face of no glee
I like these lines! I guess many can't always speak there mind or .. just didn't find a situation to.

You said everything in so few words. Being in a box can leave us wishing for a escape. The poem create thoughts and visions. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

You are alone! But it is good to look in the mirror to see the reflection of you. Nice. =)

I wish I could reach out to the girl in this piece and just give. Her a big hug. You are a great. Writer.

Why thank you :)
Alone with a face of no glee
^ That should probably be without glee instead of "of no glee" simply because as it is it is distracting the reader from the wonderful flow you had already created.
I like how short the piece is and yet is still deep enough that you are sharing a part of yourself with us (the audience). Actually this is one of my favorites from you, but I think it would fit a little better in the sad category, not really dark or fantasy.
Anyway, nice job
