Premium Member Reflections of a Broken Mirror
In shadows deep where childhood fears reside
A father's wrath and a son's tormented life.
A torrent of abuse with a soul's despair
A question lingers heavy in the stale putrid air.

"Why was I not enough for my father's pride
Why did your love like fragile glass - subside?"
I...

The Broken Mirror of Time
Looking through the broken mirror of time, 
I visit times and places from the past.
To have loved never should have been a crime; 
Yet, somehow I was always thought of last.

The fragments grow smaller as time moves on, 
And seven years of bad luck holds...

A broken mirror
A broken mirror that cuts the soul,
A broken mirror that holds control.
A broken mirror I wish to please,
A broken mirror that loves to tease.
A broken mirror I can't let go,
A broken mirror why does it show?
A broken me shattered and tired,
A broken me forever undesired....

Broken Mirror
Broken mirror 

In a beautiful moon light night,
	when the moon was fully bright,
I dreamt that a glow sparkling and white,
	getting more power, blinded my sight.
Closer and closer into my pain,
	into my body and into my vein,
stepping on my garden of youth,
	it showed me fruits of...

Broken Mirror
A broken mirror
A gustily reflection of misfortunes
I don’t recognise myself anymore
An honest look at my dishonesty
Yes, I’m a liar
The image distorted with each retreating step of shame
I take, and I move ten steps backwards in life
The falling pieces like sharp knifes
Pierce the ground with screaming...

In my dream-
     there is a broken mirror
        it is so gorgeous and wood-framed
          but is shattered.
     It stands in an...

Broken Mirror Promise
morning rhythm is interrupted
debris from the ceiling falls on her last used paper plate
i wake up with an six month odor with no hygiene whatsoever
i care not for my job, my bills, my family, or even my life
no i take no drink

A Broken Mirror
A Broken Mirror 
A Distorted Face 
A Shattered Heart 
A Clear Distaste 

A Fallen Tear 
A Reddened Eye 
A Downturned Mouth 
A Year Gone By 

A Loaded Gun 
A Finished Fear 
A Bloodied Wall 
A Broken Mirror...

Its amazing,
how we'd rather
break bones and
mirrors,
than deal with
a broken heart....

A Broken Mirror
Our love was destined to fail, 
I tried to save it without avail, 
For between us, you built a fence, 
Leaving me weak without any 
defense...

You turned my heart into a fortress
Inhabited by a soul sad and 
hopeless
But time has done the healing, 
Making me...

The Broken Mirror
silent dares
slow engraved exchanges
the primitive evolution of rage
only the fittest will survive
hostility has a spot at the table
there are no more place settings
the silver is set out perfect
a spoon, casts an oblong reflection
now, even the utensils see
there is nothing left of self respect
only the silver...

Broken Mirror
Whenever I look into a mirror
I see you: Dad and Mum.
I savour the pangs of the damage you’ve done.
I become drunk with hate.
I break the mirror, hoping to break your faces.
But then I see more faces,
shades of your faces in diversity.
Then I realize I’d just...

Broken Mirror
I had a broken mirror once,
it told me what to wear
and if I dared defy it's power,
it said things I couldn't bear. 
 
I had a broken mirror once,
it told me what to eat -
that cracker, there, is just enough
to feel lighter on your feet....

Broken Mirror
Infinite dreams and aspirations grew in me,
From the fears I was free.
Now my heart is fragmented and broken
where prevails suffocation and pain.
As cracked mirror cannot be one
So my heart is forbidden forlorn.
Hopes have dashed the ground
By infinite reasons I am bound
My heart is crippled,
My mind...
