After Shower ThoughtsA Poem by Dru ArthurAfter taking a shower, I stand before the bathroom mirror, I look at the person before me, I both know her and don't, She hides behind the glass, Her eyes hold my father's rage, While mine hold my mother's fear. I feel her eyes glaring into my soul, Devoid of her own. I can tell she's disgusted by what i am, She's disappointed by what i look like, I owe her everything i owed my father, She owns me just as my mother is owned. I am her perfect victim And she's my perfect villain. We may switch roles, When the rage takes over, But as long as mirrors exist, She shall haunts me and i shall be haunted.
