Feeling Inspired

So I wrote this poem a few weeks ago and thought I should post it somewhere and this is the perfect place. It is entitled "Smashing the Mirror." Hope you enjoy.

My biggest fear
My worst nightmare
Is my mirror

Just like the one is Snow White
It tells me a truth
Which in all sense
Are lies

I catch myself gazing
And staring at me
Wondering
If this reflection is me

I laughed when I heard
You reflection is your soul
How can this be
Cause that ain’t me

If it were
I’d be broken and scared
And grasping for air
But in all reality
That is me

But that’s only skin deep
And all a mirror can show
But if you look in my eyes
Then you’ll really know

My soul is screaming and shouting
For something to do
It’s on fire
Let’s bring change to you

My soul is standing on a mountaintop
Arms held wide
Taking that jump
And you’ll soon know why

I’m ready for change
And my soul knows that
It’s just
My mind doesn’t feel that

My mind controls the eyes
Which help me see the lies
But if you know the soul
You know where to go

So that mirror
That held me back
Is broken
Cause my soul saw past that
