Don't stare into the mirror

Also a recent story I have posted onto TFS, I wanted to make it more poem like. The main story is that there is demon-spirit living inside a certain mirror, inside a certain house; she's a lady in the mirror, she can't get out, unless somebody stares into

Waking up,
I'm walking towards the bathroom,

Splash water onto my face,

I look up and in the mirror,

It's not me.

 

It's a woman,

With her jetblack hair,

And her deep blue eyes,

Her sun-kissed tan,

And gripping smile,

She's crying,

I need to help her.

 

She shows me money,

My good side has gone,

So much money,

Is it for me?

 

She's feeding off my reflection,

But the money is all I need,

All that I need.

 

She controls me now,

She has embraced me,

I need to fight it,

But I cannot,

My mind is lost.

 

I enter my neighbours house,

The spare key from under the broken flowerpot,

I enter the main room,

So much money,

Yet I can't touch it,

She's moving me upstairs.

 

I look down and I have a gun in my hand,

I turn towards the babies room,

And turn him on his stomach,

Cot death, it's all simple right?

 

Then comes the single mother,

I shoot her,

Not even hesitating one single bit,

The lady in the mirror has let go now,

 

I walk out slowely of the house,

To get my reward,

But as I was walking,

I wasn't moving,

I was moving my legs,

But not going anywhere.

 

The world kept getting smaller,

Smaller and smaller,

I see people around me,

In the same problem,

I ask what's going on

One replies

"You've fallen into her spell"

 

Her, her, her,

The words kept repeating in my head,

Her, her, her,

I am trapped in the mirror now I realise,

Never trust the demon.

Author's Note

I know this is confusing, but the poem asks you what's going on in general. Are we to know what happens in the real world, are we to really know, the same with this poem, it questions our beliefs.
