Amirah

I made a mirror my new best friend,

So I could say things that I didn't have to defend.

Ready and available on spot!...

OH! the things I said... *shakes my head*... it was a lot...

Like the anxiety I felt whenever people stared,

My Hopes, Dreams, and all the things I feared.

I voiced my thoughts... the things that kept me up at night,

Those I've lost; still in mind but now out of sight

Emotions and expressions that I couldn't hide

In a mirror... it was safe and easy to confide.
