Mirror

A girl steps out in front that mirror

What does she see?

Someone scared

Someone scarred

That girl

Looks in her reflection

She sees ugliness

Hopelessness

That girl

Sits down by the mirror and cries

Wishing she was prettier

Wishing she was someone else

But that girl

Stands up

She wipes the tears from her eyes

Forms a fist

Shatters it into shards

Of red stained glass

Then she laughs

Because she knows

That she's in the wrong room

With warped mirrors

She's in the wrong world

With the wrong people

So she bends down

And picks up a shard

A single tear runs down her cheek

And for the first time in a long time

She smiles, from deep inside her soul

A red warmth overtakes her 

Her long awaited replacement

Of those tattered wings

They flutter and she takes off

She has been set free
