Magic Mirror
You said you despised me
I was the wind that always blew your candles out
Tummy large like the circle of people I've disappointed
Chin sagged from the erosion of my sobs
I was the creature under your bed
That directed your worst nightmares
Yet I look back now in that mirror
Reflection rippling like ransacked water
You thought I was growling
Oh how naive looking for aggression in your greatest friend
Would you still believe I deserve death knowing what I've done?
I've made our dreams possible.
Then a few more years after
I'll tell you I've walked among them
I now revisit that tear-made mirror
To reflect a soft smile
Magic Mirror,
Why was I ever worried?
