Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Is that my face I see?
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Do you worship me?
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
You point out all my flaws.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
You think you know it all.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
I don't know how much more I can take.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
I'm finally about to break.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Can you see the tears?
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
I know you know my fears.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Why do you mimic me?
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
This is the way it must be.
Mirror, mirror you are no more...
Just broken shards of glass upon the floor.
Mirror, mirror, broken upon the floor,
I don't have to face your judgement anymore.

A really excellent piece that was a very well-crafted, personal and reflection on the 'Mirror, Mirror' prompt, and a pleasure to read. Best of luck in the contest.
