Day One: Annie Twitchell // Mirror Mirror...
April 03, 2018
Mirror Mirror,
Mirror on the
Wall…
Darling girl,
the mirror
tells but lies.
Tells of skin
and beauty
like crushed
rose petals.
Mirror Mirror,
Mirror on the
Wall…
No!
Darling girl,
Darling girl,
the mirror is
but glass.
The eyes that
see
are merely your
own.
Darling girl,
fairest of them
all
are not yet
words
that silver
glass may speak.
Darling girl,
‘tis not the
mirror
that lies to
your heart.
You yourself
are both
deceiver and
deceived.
Darling girl,
there is no
magic
in shattered
glass.
But magic there
is
in a heart that
is strong,
in a love that
is true,
and in hands
that reach out.
