Ceramic

Breakable face,
Stares at the mirror.
Flawless outer skin
But inside empty and alone.

Cold to the touch,
With glazed eyes
Won’t ever blink.

In a list

    I read this. . .and it felt like I've read it hundreds of times before. . .not that that's necessarily bad. It just gave it an eerie quality. Which is appropriate for the message you're conveying here. You used the idea of ceramic pretty well, I thought, the flow was a little off'd somewhere along the way, I'm not really sure where. I like the internal rhyme of skin and blink, though, since that definitely adds some flair. Thanks for the entry. This is good.
