Mirror Mirror Poem by Heather Kemper

Mirror mirror on the wall
tell me what you see.
Do you see the exact same things
that I when I look at me?

I see a total failure
a mistake that never should have been.
Someone who didn't deserve his love
who doesn't deserve to live.

I see someone who's ugly
who cannot be desired because of that.
Someone who isn't worthy
a mere disappointment and that's the facts.

I see a desperate person
who knows she can't be loved.
Who knew no matter how hard he tried
he'd leave because of who she was.

Someone who fails the ones that love her
embarrass them all in time.
So mirror mirror tell me please
is the reflection you see inside?
