A struggle beyond the mirror

by In Darkness I Dwell   Sep 7, 2009


At the mirror I stared
Ignoring why I was that scared
A girl was staring back at me
I stood watching her and I didn’t flee
She was begging me
To set her free
Before she would suffocate
Before it would be so late
I gazed at her weary eyes
Tears were growing but with no cries
I wanted to talk to her
But I lost my voice in the way
I wanted to touch her
But she just faded away...

    This was a very good poem that is written about someone looking into the mirror and how they want to see some one that they are not and you do a very good job on this. The flow of the poem was descent and the rhyming pattern was constant through out it and the feelings I'm pretty sure lots of other people have felt looking at a mirror and wanting to see something that they are not and once again you did a wonderful job at that. Keep Writing.
