Mirrors are harsh
Sometimes cruel
They are hard to face
Even for the strongest
For it’s easy to point out faults
But hard to face them
You find someone you don’t like
Inside you realize
You have a resemblance
But you deny it
You know that people talk about you
Behind your back
But you deny it
For you refuse to look at a mirror
A mirror reflecting your decisions
Your faults
But I have learnt
That to defeat a mirror
You have to face it
Face your every fault
Every mistake, everything you did
They were in the past
You are a new person now
For you try to improve
Instead of blaming
Or pointing out others’
You see your own
And you face them
You face your mirror

I think that now you’ve stopped worrying about making poems rhyme, your poems have taken another leap forward. Good work.
I am very glad that you think that way. But of course I owe it all to you, and other authors who have helped me along the way. You have my eternal gratitude.
