The Mirror;
It Cracks,
Breaks,
Shatters on the Floor
Because what was Once There
Is There No More

© Heather W., No., Brunswick, NJ

The author's comments:
I wrote this when I was going through a drastic change in my life; I would look at myself in the mirror and I wouldn't see the girl I used to be. I would see the girl I am now.

This is super good! the first time i read it, I just thought it was a really cool poem, but I wasnt quite sure what about. Then, I read it again, and WOW! I love it! :) I can totally understand the feeling, and a mirror is such a good metaphor!
