The girl and a thousand mirrors
She spins around reflections of herself
Yet blind to the image
Hours turn to days
Days turn to months
Yet she sits in the corner with contentiful ignorance
As much as she tries her patience fades
But she holds on tight with the stubbornness laced within her mind so far she can see it through her eyes
Fate taps on her shoulder
Destiny whispers in her ear
But taps turn into whips
And whispers turn into shouts
Forcing her to take off the goggles full of tears
Toxic Tears infused with denial slam onto the floor
She then looks up clearly into the mirrors
She rejects the clearest reflection shes ever seen
She tries to escape by shattering the mirrors with her distaste and repulsion
But all it leaves her with is a thousand tiny mirrors staring her back in the eye with an honest reflection
She picks up a piece and pierces herself in both eyes expecting relief
But instead all she gets is a burst of reflections within her eyes
Staring back right back at her with every blink and tear.
