The Fears & Their Blind Stares
Heavy breathing
Emotions seething
Mirror stumbling in the darkness
Chest and lungs heaving
Reflections causing pain so heartless
Now crying, curled up and screaming
Panic
Breathe
Fear
Leave
Eyes see the mirror
Unbeknownst to all its fear
He just reflects throughout the years
Internalized, choking on tears
Yet through the ignorant angry sneers
The mirror stays on
Reflection
