THE MIRROR

I remember a mirror
A fair face
Reflected with all the beauty
Of simplicity
Yet filled with such anguish
The blue eyes
Reveal the sadness within
So bright and so happy
So dark and so gloomy
Such soft features
Deceivingly lovely
Ever so slightly lined
With pain
A smile eluded
The blue eyes
Lower
Slowly
I remember a mirror
