Mirror Mirror

While I was trying to go
I went around the corner
I was against the wall
What happened I could not move

I was confused
I was stiff
I was paralyzed
When I looked down I saw the other side of the hall
Then I realized I was a mirror on the wall

When he found me he only saw a mirror
But I saw confusion
I saw anger
I saw hurt and sadness upon his face

As the years went by
He married anew
He treated her the same
She wanted to leave to, I could see it

When they had a child, a girl
I was a happy mirror
She sang and danced to me
She talked at me to herself

I was a sad mirror
When she cried to me
Told me stories of her dad
The story of the loss of her mom

I was an enraged mirror
When I saw he beat her to
He took his anger out on her
She wanted to leave to, the only difference is she succeeded

As the years turned into decades
I was moved
I was stored
I was forgotten

I was a broken mirror and I was forever alone
My only comfort was she made it
When he passed she came back
I now sit with her children's children

I am a happy mirror for now
