She gazes into the looking glass,
Searching for what others see.
Where is she?
That wonderful and happy girl,
Do they not see the tears streaming down her face?
She feels dull and lifeless,
In a colorful and lively world.
Do they not see her heart breaking?
Her dreams fading?
If only they could see through the lies,
See down to the pain hidden deep inside.
She closes her eyes and hopes for something new,
But when she opens them it’s always the same view.
She takes the mirror,
As if to get a better look.
She smiles at it once,
Not a happy smile but a grim smirk,
Hiding a secret from the world.
She holds the looking glass up,
And smashes it to a million pieces on the floor.
