Write a story titled "When I Look in the Mirror".

When I Look In The Mirror

When I look in the mirror,

I see reality

For it is not the dress,

Nor face that define me.


You see what you want to see

You see a weak plain girl

Who will follow orders

And beg for her “majesty”


But that is nowhere from the truth

My soul has awaken aflame

And I too can act,

And destroy those

Who bring shame to my name


You fear the truth

But I have been enlightened

Face reality as I have

Or you’ll be forever frightened


So look in the mirror

For it will show

A god.

A demon.

Or a fool,

But I think you already know

I really really like the ending, I think that’s so cool sounding, and the first stanza was also very nice, great poem :)

Awww man I spent so long on that last stanza, I just really wanted to use the god,demon,fool thing but I feel like I crammed it in there. I really hope it doesn’t mess with the flow, I just think it’s a really cool thing to say 😭
