Girl in the Mirror
Her sapphire eyes mirror a glowing
wonder, mixed with loss and longing
beneath flowing auburn curls,
aquiline nose, and mystical
flawless features–
yet she suffers
alone
Her enticing lips are sweet as cider
extracted from the choicest ruby red apples
but can change vicious &
twisted
as a witch’s brew
her perfect teeth gleam proudly
as impeccable milky pearls– sharp
as her razor wit
