Very nicely done! I like that it was so short and still got so much across. I think it might flow a little better to add some kind of punctuation between the second and third lines, just to help that transition along. Overall, it was very well written though!

i read this twice.. the first time i was like uh i don't get it
then i came back and read it again. and the title and the poem clicked. very nicely written.
I like the idea of drawing on the mirror to mask yourself
beautifully written.
