Mirror
You stand there.
Staring.
Looking a yourslf.
Glaing.
Mocking you
Mocking all those insecurities
You try and chase aay.
All those imperfections
That chase you day by day
Weighing you down.
Acne stuck on pale skin
Braces molded on crooked teeth
Glasses covering dull eyes
I stand there staring.
Looking at you,
All your perfection,
Flawless porcelain physique
White dazzling pearls
Radiant iris
You stand there staring.
You walk away-
Defeated.
I stand there admiring.
Watching-
Your baby blue eyes
Light up when you smile
Listening-
To the warm sound of your laugh
Feeling-
Your kindness towards others
I stand there,
Admiring.
