Description
Fate is a fickle child
One day by the lemon tree there was
A girl with a broken smile
In her hands she held
A mirror in which she saw
The things she envied most
Family, love, beauty, and those long gone
Another her with a perfect smile
Laughter, joy, and peaceful homes
With trembling fingers she reaches out
That was the place she was meant to be
No one believed her when she told of what she had seen
Because all that was in her world
Were things of loss and pain, terror and tears
She fell asleep
The sun beating down on her worn back
The mirror surface glittered in the golden rays
The dirtied surface reflected the clear blue sky
And while she slept on
The other side was still churning
A crack in the seeming perfection
And before she even was aware
Her innocent hope
Turned into despair
The mirror was broken
It always had been
