Mirror
Mirrors reflect beauty and vanity
Loving lies embraced by pure white lace
My reflection reveals someone who is despicable and corrupt with insanity
But benevolence and grace emanate a glow about my face
Thoughts of suicide and lonliness have conducted my requiem
Wishing to be free from the pain of being me
Avoiding problems have left me condemned
But in the end I know I'll be free
A kind heart and a loving soul couldn't save my life
So I'll wait for that first moment of sleep eternal.

But in the end I know I'll be free
A kind heart and a loving soul couldn't save my life

This poems reminds me so much of the dream I had last night, in which I was to be executed by literally being pulled apart,but instead saved myself by choosing to be as corrupt as my captors. So the poem acted as a Mirror by reminding me of the dream I'd forgotten! Good poem by the way.
