Mirror
Mirror mirror on the wall, Who's the finest of them all? I hope I'm among them, Since I'm tall, But I'm reeking of shame, I calmly recall. Mirror mirror on the wall, Why are you ignoring my call? Am I that a devil to hide from, Or I'm an ember in burning coal, Soon dying into a corpse, cold. Mirror mirror on the wall, I should shutter you Before I regret to be have been told, For I won't be bold, To face the truth bitter, That I'm old.
