A Perfect World

Please check out my new blog, A Perfect World, I will continue to add to this one, which is more poetry. But "A Perfect World" is just a bit different.

Mirrors

Mirrors are delicate,
easily broken,
but somehow strong enough to tell us the truth about ourselves,
without holding back.
You blame them for what you look like,
for telling you the truth in a mean way,
for leaving no space for white lies.
Mirrors' comments are easily dismissed,
by the people who don't care,
but also by those with a guilty conscience.
And sometimes,
you know that a mirror would throw so many words at a person,
that you're not sure how they ignore them,
but hope that they don't.
In the end,
mirrors cause greif,
but hopefully they cause change.
