A Silver Mirror
#WritcoPoemPrompt53
A silver mirror kept in my room,
showcasing everything in an impartial way,
It lits everything with it's silver gloom,
when it gets hit by the golden sunray...
Showcasing my life
in one setting of a moment...
The magnificence of my image
and every flaw that I had to accept....
Wishes in my head...and scars
Hidden, and Visibles they tell a story.
The texture of my beautiful black
and my choice of textile...
The blanks of my stare and emotions
marsked by a smile at my silver mirror,
I had to perfect my pose.
And the colors of my walls and choice
of furnishing and blinds;
Yes you see me, and
forever told my story,
in a seemingly perfect reflection
of what is and what's not..

A silver mirror kept in my room,
Showcasing everything but my secrets
in an impartial way...
it lits everything but my soul, with it's silver gloom,
when it gets hit by the golden sun ray...
