Mirrors are great and terrible things.
They always show you for you,
an unbiased, uncaring reflection,
simply an image of what’s true.
You can throw it to the ground,
break it into a million bits,
but they’ll just show smaller pieces
of the puzzle that still fits.
They’ll never change for you,
lie to you to make you happy.
They only taunt and torment
until you change what you see.
