Mirror


















A shield of humor
Masks a gentle soul,
An indomitable will,
An irrepressible spirit.
Mirror to the world
What you want it to see,
Never let it look through the glass.
A marshmallow center
Covered in a candy coating,
Sweet to the core.
Vulnerable,
Strong,
Courageous,
Shy.
Nothing to see,
Everything to know.
See yourself reflected.
Expect to see
More than bargained for.
Expect truth,
Don’t be fooled
By the make believe.
