Mirrors

It doesn't matter what other people think of you, or say about you. What you think of yourself is most important.

Mirrors

By: megan17

Mirrors can't lie.

They can't put up masks to hide sadness,

They can't put on a smile to fake happiness,

They can't make rude comments to distract from their own insecurities,

Mirrors can't lie.

Mirrors can't lie.

They can't give us false judgement,

They can't give us funny looks as we walk through the door,

They can't give us the luxury of talking about us behind our backs,

Mirrors can't lie.

Mirrors can't lie.

They can't sweet talk us,

They can't use us,

They can't forget about us,

Mirrors can't lie.

Mirrors can't lie.

They can't beg for us to be good,

They can't tell us it was what we were meant to do,

They can't be disappointed in our mistakes,

Mirrors can't lie.

Mirrors show us who we are.

We are strong.

We are unique.

We are beautiful.

Mirrors don't lie.

This is still a rough draft, any comments are welcome. If you have any ideas on how I can make the poem bit more powerful, I would love to hear those too!
