I am disappointed by the mirror.
It says everything is fine.
It says don’t worry.
Everything is fine.

But I can see it.
Unfocused it shows.
It’s there, hidden in the depths of
These dark pools surrounded by
Bright green rivers that are stirred,
Tormented by life.

I can see it there,
This ******* mirror
It’s so facetious,
Everything is fine.
Telling fascinating lies.

I wonder what would happen
If it cracks.
Would the rivers freeze
Could I stand the shards
Piercing out and full of truth.
Would everything be fine then

I want to collide with this
****** up manifestation.
I want it to shatter and prove
If everything is fine.
If it weren’t so terrifying
I would.
