The thing about broken mirrors..

Is they tend to mirror other things..

Like your heart after a fall..

After you give it your all..

Because though your heart is stable..

Though in the mirror you're still ..able to see..

Both never got rid of the memory..

You still see the glue that holds together your view of you..

You still see the cracks..

What left intact..

After all you've been through..

You see the pain..

For whatever triggered in your brain..

To make you break the mirror..

Or maybe the glass became unstable..

Unable to hold together..and broke..

And now...like your heart after being battered…

The only reflection you see …

Is one shattered.
