A reflection of the self
The bathroom mirror shows so much more
Her eyes
An ocean trapped in an endless storm
Marks of heavy tears below
And sleepless nights
Her lips
Kissed by cherries
Smiling hurts some days
Sobs kept falling out of it
Her skin
A desolate winter night
The sun was always avoided
The night was her only friend
Her hair
Colored in the same shade as the trees
Sometimes short, sometimes long
The bangs always straight
She is beautiful
Not even broken
Just bent
A reflection of the self
The view I give myself shows so much more

A reflection of the self
The bathroom mirror shows so much more
Her eyes
An ocean trapped in an endless storm
Marks of heavy tears below
And sleepless nights
Her lips
Kissed by cherries
Smiling hurts some days
Sobs kept falling out of it
Her skin
A desolate winter night
The sun was always avoided
The night was her only friend
Her hair
Colored in the same shade as the trees
Sometimes short, sometimes long
The bangs always straight
She is beautiful
Not even broken
Just bent
A reflection of the self
The view I give myself shows so much more
