Girl’s Reflection

I’m peering into my mirror

Taking note of all I see,

There’s a girl’s reflection

Staring back at me.

***

She looks so scared and lonely

Terribly unhappy for sure,

My heart breaks just looking at her

I don’t want to see anymore.

***

She’s desperately trying to tell me

Things I do not want to hear,

I’ve allowed her to hurt me before

I don’t want her anywhere near.

***

I know what she wants to say

But I’ve no interest in her words,

My days of listening are over

She’s got what she deserves.

***

Still she reaches out once more

Then realises she is my past,

All her pain and sorrow

Safely locked inside that glass.
