the mirror

i look into a mirror
and what do i see?
a whole lot of hatred
staring back at me.

years of self doubt, disappointment, and fear
no salvation in sight
nothing is clear

the mirror is right,
i know in my heart
so i swing at it with all my might

shattering the glass
as it falls to the floor,
i know that im still
the same person as before.
