If you're looking for a constructive response, all I can say, is keep writing. It is my belief that you have expanded beyond what I am at this point, meaning you're writing level is more natural and flows more well in depth than mine. You use powerful imagery, not only in font style but also in picture. Appropriate titles. This is a very practical example of a mirror, just like the Bible records in the book of James chapter One. Sometimes we look in the mirror and go away, and forget who we were. Sometimes we look in the mirror of doubt long enough that we stare until it consumes us. And other times we just look longing to find fault with things.
A mirror beholds truth and is just; it even records emotion, truth, and sincerity such as not being able to see yourself in the mirror anymore. Like a vampire staring into mirror or a ghost even. Very thought provoking and useful in practical, every day life. So really, as continued from the top, your mentor at this point in time is either a scholar who knows more than what a text book says... or time, practice, and patience. These are the tools by which we grow.
What we see in a mirror is not what others see .. we don't put on a face, don't pretend .. and, reality hurts, however small.
It belies the 'what you see is what I am' because we wear an extra layer for others- for ourselves, however hard we try, we know the truth. We're treated by society as to how we see ourselves; the mirror reminds us of that. The reflection pushes home that all that glitters is by no means gold, we're tarnished .. spent ..

I agree... time run fast.. and when we look back.. at that Mirror..
we do not know.. what life has done to us..
Sometimes.. we are strangers in our own.. mirrors
I agree...and I love your poem.. cold and dark
but amazing.. 100 magical to me
If youre lucky enough you find yourself and who you once were unless of course your sole intent was to forget the past and move on. I love the chorus and how your emotions are hidden behind a faceless mask.
My style of writing poetry is a little different. My poems mostly inspired by photography, and music. A picture is worth a thousand words and I love find the words within the photo.
