The Mirror
Look in the mirror,
What do you see?
Are you satisfied?
Does it make you happy?
What do you wish?
To see some other?
Looking back at you
Waiting to discover.
Is it the colour?
The flare of your nose?
The curve of your chin?
What? Do you wish?
You had long straight hair?
Down your back when you sit,
Touching the chair?
The brown of your iris
Like the bark of trees
Or you’d prefer some tint of green
Like the colour of leaves?
Or perhaps a shade of blue
Like the colour of the skies
Or something in between
For the colour of your eyes?
Those curves of your body
The outline, of your face
The contour of your lips,
Now, that’s an ace
The slant of your eyes,
The curl in your hair,
Is just what it should be,
You were well prepared.
When the next time comes,
And you look at yourself
Don’t ever, ever wish,
You were somebody else.
