Thoughts of Mirrors

What does a mirror show?

The part of you that you show to the world?

Or the shrouded part of you

Hidden by black vines that encompass your heart

And trapped by a lock with no key?


Some would say it unveils your secrets

That it uncovers you

In a way no one else could


But a mirror is just a reflection

It is just light bouncing off of objects

And making it's way to your eyes

There is no magic

Just truth


So if a mirror only shows you

What others can see

Does that mean

That the cracks around your edges

And the vines in your soul

Are visible to everyone

But they just choose not to notice?
