The Mirror: My Only Arch Nemesis


One speed
Faster than light
With immeasurable intensity the fist flies
Into the mirror with passion
Into the mirror with fear
Into the mirror with…

CRACK.
It spreads slowly
And the shattered glass pauses only a second before flying
Attacking me with hate
Attacking me with ugly truths and faults and promises

Ghostlike images approach me and then

RIP.
My skin is torn to shreds
And slowly I fall out

It seems only right that what kills me inside kills me outside too.

  1. Why can't images like these you see strengthen people like us, not take us down.
