That face in the mirror,
That Beauty that shines back,
Is it more than a mirror?
Or is it just a shadow of that person?
We look into the mirror to define us,
To secure ourselves,
But does the mirror lie?
Manipulate our thoughts?
For the mirror only sees,
It only sees...
For can it see beyond that shadow?
Are we becoming the person we see in the mirror?
That dreadful person,
Soulless,
Defined only by the fragments of light that reflect from your skin,
Emptier than space...
