I sat quietly in the room bestowed upon me.
Scrolling through stupid shorts on my phone,
my ears caught faint, silent screams.
My gaze shifted—
the mirror in the corner stared back.
Voices upon voices pressed against the glass,
barely audible,
like moths trapped in a crystal jar.
My fingers traced a line across its surface,
and a quiet choir rose from within.
Its voice was low and broken,
yet sharp, vengeful,
piercing the silence.
I couldn’t help but join in—
my own voice slipping away,
losing itself in that mirror,
forevermore.
