Reflection

A Prose Poem

By Eliza NightingalePublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

I know a lot about you so I must be pretty powerful.

I'm a mirror without reflection

I'm the definition of imperfection

My touch it's infectious

I'm Glass you can see right through

I'm not the person you thought you knew

I'm fragile but not broken

I'm a symbol, a token

My words are made up of wishes

So don't take them for granted

I wish life were a mirror and not me

I don't want to be the broken person I see
