MIrror Mirror on the wall
Please tell me I'm not the girl
Staring back at me.
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Tell me this is all a bad dream
Please confirm I have not changed
And am not someone I don't want to be.
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Take away my fears and uncertainty
Show me everything will be okay
And chase my inner demons away.
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Heal the scars
I am ashamed of
And make me forget
The last three years of my pathetic life.
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Show me how to find
Eternal happiness
Make the memories go away.
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Make me not feel like
A complete failure
Let me do something right for once
Let me be perfect
Help me to like myself
And not want to die.
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Make me not feel so numb anymore.

This is really good!! I really like it! And I know what you mean! I want to take away all the pain I've felt for a long time. But I can't I just have to deal with it! You did a nice job with the mirror aspect although not quite what I wanted but it's still an awesome poem! Nice job! Thanks for entering my contest! I really appreciate it! <3-Erin

A good voice of vanity is portrayed in this poem. But I think you should provide just a tad bit more details, perhaps one more stanza, just to identify what it was exactly that happened in the past three years that you want to forget just because it is an intriguing thought and it demands curiosity from the reader. Good job though and good luck in the contest
