~Shattered Past~

This was not written from my personal P.O.V. but it was something that i seen in my mind so i had to write it down...

~Shattered Past~

Who is that girl
Trapped in the mirror?
She looks like me
But I don’t recognize
The look in her eyes.
Why is she so sad?
Is it because
She’s caged behind bars
Of skewed misconception
Or maybe because
Her sorrow is written on her brow
The image of her past
Stares back into the face
Of her future

 

I’m locked in a world full of lies
So I dodge my own reflection
Because the glass holds the truth
I gaze at these unwanted features
They remind me of my so-called mother
Who doesn’t even deserve that title.
I look into my own eyes
And I see hers looking back…
I scream with every breath left in my lungs

 

WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME!
DIDN’T YOU LOVE ME!!

 

Tears rolling, eyes swollen
I pound my fist into the glass
Shattering all that was left of my past
A distorted torn and broken
Face looks back at me in the mirror
Who is that girl?

I think it says alot about todays world. lots have people have family that has left them. the was good symbolizm with the mirror in here. a mirror everything is trapped, once you look into it. the key though is not to look. ps. your pic is perfect for this poem.

Your work is excellent, what more can I say.

[Blue Bard]

You have used your imagination to create a story, instead of biography. I respect that. It's harder sometimes to tell a story than it is to tell your story. This is well realized. You express deep emotion and courage in the character. Well done.
