MIRRORS (BAD)

If a mirror could talk, I wonder if any one of them would ever interrupt one of the "talks" I have with myself.

MIRRORS (BAD)

a mask won't hide who you are on the inside,

but only those who can see through will know

i've seen you, and your every side

and it's because i can still see you,

that i hate you-

i know just how long you can last with that mask on

but eventually, your true colors will show,

and you will know,

that i hate you-

for showing me that face

your always out of place,

even as you stand before me

if i could take you,

and throw you away,

i wouldn't hesitate-

even if, it meant the same for me

your silence is what little, and lack of peace i have

it's the toil of listening to your voice that i cannot stand

i hope you never speak again-

even if it meant the same for me

About the Creator

Josh Morgan

Personally, writing began as a creative outlet, to be a means of processing and venting emotion, but it has become so much more. Something I want not to be just relatable, enjoyable and a good read, but to reach someone who is in need.
