Shattered Mirror
"Without Looking at an Image of Terror"

I look in the shattered mirror.
And I try to see myself,
Without looking at an image of terror.
The reflection I see is like a wolf.
I try to forget the scars that I left,
And the blood that I painted on myself.
In my heart, I'm a broken handcraft,
I try to achieve their beauty standards,
But, instead I destroyed my precious gift.
Behind the shattered mirror are flashcards,
Flashcards that will put the glass together again.
I hope to see many beautiful hummingbirds.
One day the backgrounds will no longer rain,
Instead, I will be able to see a beautiful rainbow.
How long do I isolate myself in my cabin?
In my mirror, there is a tall, thin shadow.
It is an enemy to me, but a friend to my mirror.
It forces me to break my clear and clean window.
I look in the shattered mirror,
And I try to fix the shattered mirror.
Without looking at an image of terror.
