Mirror Mirror On The Wall

By Martina Pinto

You have come down the ages,

So ask yourself what you still seek.

Is your soul in search of freedom,

Or is there a purpose you need to be complete?

Look into the mirror,

For there is where answers unfold,

To every truth and every lie,

You tell others and sometimes even yourself.

There is a price for it all,

So always ask the mirror on the wall,

Are you fair to it all?

If it reflects back with pride or greed

Or any of the lower seeds,

Wipe it out while you still have time.

Remember, today is tomorrow’s faithful friend.

Recognize your purpose and follow its every step.

Strive to be better than you ever knew yourself,

So that tomorrow, when you turn around,

The mirror will reflect back and say,

'You are the fairest of them all.'
