Reflection
Mirror ,mirror on the wall,
Am I fair to thee?
"No my child," it said to me,
"Nor will you ever be."
Mirror,mirror on the wall,
Is my skin free of flaw?
"Tisk, my love, I think not,
"It's the worse I ever saw.
Mirror,mirror on the wall,
Is my hair like spun gold?
"No,no, no, I am sorry,
"Its more the color of mold."
Mirror,mirror on the wall,
Can my smile light up a room?
"No my sweet, it cannot,
"For your aura gives off doom."
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Is my figure pleasing to the eye?
"It most certainly isn't ,I must say,
"No matter how you try,"
Mirror,mirror on the wall,
Will prince charming save me with a kiss?
"I'm sorry, I regret to say,
"I cannot promise this."
Mirror,mirror on the wall,
Are you my only friend?
"Yes my dear, I really am,
"And I will be till the end."
Mirror,mirror on the wall,
Will my story ever have joy and laughter?
"It is foretold,I have to say
"You have no "happily ever after."
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Whatever should I do?
"Trust in me, and no one else,
"I will take care of you."
Mirror,mirror on the wall,
Can you write a end to my tale?
"This I promise, my little one,"
"You, I will not fail."
Mirror,mirror on the wall,
It is time to say goodnight,
"Yes, it is, it is way past time,
"To forever turn out the light."
Am I fair to thee?
