Every mirror is an enemy
Every mirror is an enemy
A reflection of hatred and hollowness
I try to avoid the eye contact
Those terrible eyes
Staring back
All she does is yell the horrendous things
Things I already know
My hands shake
As I try to draw a smile onto this hell
Cover up the eyes tired from the reminders
The eyes seem so empty
She just smiles
Happy that she drains the life
Leaving nothing but a hollow reflection of hatred.

The eyes seem so empty
She just smiles
Happy that she drains the life
Leaving nothing but a hollow reflection of hatred.

Asking myself which horrors may have sparked the poem. So much loneliness and pain shown.
