Mirror Mirror on the wall,
You show my every break,
And every fault.
Mirror Mirror,
Tell the truth,
Do you need me,
Like I need you?
Mirror Mirror,
What is that,
Is that a skin of perfect patch?
Mirror Mirror,
I see the truth,
I cut the skin,
Cause I envy you.
Mirror Mirror,
You think I'm the fake?
Well Mirror,
All You can do is copy the truth.
Mirror Mirror,
This is me,
Now Mirror Mirror,
Do you envy me?

wow this is amazing, and so true, mirrors are evil, lol!
I love your words and the way they go, and how it all makes since!

very interesting
It had a nice flow with decent imagery the idea was a little shaky but all in all it was a great write thanks for your entry!! -
interesting write
I like the general idea of the poem the imagery was decent and it had nice flow. but the truth is that the mirror should envy us -
This could seem a little confusing, but when I read it through it was really nice
It was pretty
Sometimes it did get a little cliche but it generally was very nice, for a mirror poem
I loved the dialouge between them, the dependancy
I have to say the best stanza is the first one, it worked well
This poem was well thought through
Well done
Thank you for entering
And goooood luck
-
Oooh...it's pretty...
-
WOW!
i love this bit:
Mirror Mirror,
You think I'm the fake?
Well Mirror,
All You can do is copy the truth
its just, so true.
Great Write.
-
great write. Mirror image can be true or a lie.
-
Dakota this is absolutely amazing. I love you little sister. And I agree with you, this is like the best thing ever. Love ya
-
the mirror here seem to be more than just an image... it appears as a personification or perhaps a metaphor for your alter-ego.
the 3rd line of the 3rd stz seem a bit vague. if i got it correct, i think you meant "is that a perfect patch of skin"
anyway, with out trying to sound like an ass-kisser just because i've entered your contest, i'll just say that a decent piece of poetry.
keep it up.

wow this poem was amazing. was this your inspiration for your contest[i entered your contest ].. it really did just leave me speechless...my favorites lines were
Mirror Mirror,
You think I'm the fake?

All You can do is copy the truth.

I had just addd in the rules to put in your ap sn in the AN can you please do this hun and sorry this rule was added late
-
this is outstanding great write i love how it flowed amazing job
-
Interesting write with good ideas to supplement. (=
I like this phrase of what you said about mirror, "Well Mirror, All You can do is copy the truth." so succinct and sweet and so true. Mirrors cannot really decide on what to show, but just duplicates another set of truth. And in reflection, we judge ourselves. Nice.
(=, you make me feel like writing about mirror.

Mirror Mirror,
You think I'm the fake?
Well Mirror,
All You can do is copy the truth.
A true poem about being fake. -
nice write. Hmmm.. interesting perspective on mirrors.
-
rather witty really great to read
-
cool
it's great...i love the repition...it suits the theme...
-
very nice this is just the poem for my life....much love
-
this IS really good! i especially love the socond stanza:
Mirror Mirror,
Tell the truth,
Do you need me,
Like I need you?
i think it adds a lot of depth to the poem.
but if you deleted the I in the third stanza, i think it would help the flow be even better than it already is.
but overall, this poem is great!
-
wow! this was the basic sort of message i was goin for in that song i attempted writin with the same title. phenomenal! great work.
-
wow, this is very good I really like it
