and then

there were

no more mirrors

each carefully covered

or turned the other way

no more mirrors

visions of self-doubt

quieted

if just for a day

 

and then

there were

no more mirrors

each delightfully decimated

or reduced to exquisite shards

no more mirrors

feelings of dysphoria

expunged

if just for a day

 

and then

there were

no more mirrors

no more mirrors

except in the reflection

of his eyes

feelings of strength

develop

if just for a day

DAILY PROMPT

The Mirror Crack’d
