"Mirror mirror on the wall" is what I hear you say. Yes, I am the mirror on the wall. What can I do for you today? We've been together so long, what can I show you that you haven't seen before? I've shown you your beautiful, strong hair, the cute freckles on your cheeks, the light in your hazel eyes and your lips that make men weak. I've shown you with your makeup. I've shown you your smile when you let your hair down. It hurt to show you your tears when he broke your heart, but I was so proud to show you in your wedding gown. I know it may seem strange coming from a mirror, but seeing gray in your hair, I can't help but stop and stare. Looking back, I think the best part of being a part of your show is seeing how much confidence you've gained as you've grown. Before our time comes to an end, there are two things i hope you know are true: i love being your mirror, and I will only ever have eyes for you

this poem was inspired by 2 questions i asked: how does the mirror feel knowing that people are sometimes disappointed with how they look, and do people appreciate how honest a mirror is or do they resent that honesty?
