This poem isn't that good. It doesn't rhyme which is a first for me.

I really liked the picture although it didn't relate to the poem too much. Haha. Enjoy?

Its hard sometimes
In those times of being insecure
To see the reflection of a broken child
Who's smile will be nevermore

The gloomy eyes stare back
Begging to be kind and fair
To hold out a helping hand
Protect his heart from being torn

For someone to patch the wounds
Put the pieces back and sew the seam
To wish for a brighter future
And hope love will find its way

I love this

It must be one of my fave poems of yours.

PS  The pic was indeed great too.  It reminded me of something I wrote a while back.  I'll try and find it.

I found it.  Not sure if I can post it in this forum as I'm not a teen, so I'll post it in this reply.  It really fits with your mirror pic I think:

Light

I never knew the girl behind the polish
of pretty gold and mirrors.  Of course
I do not mean the one who was refused
nothing.  Who cried for the world
only when the filigree of silver
in her hair rubbed through to daylight;
or when, finally, gilt could not maintain
the suppleness and blushes of her skin.

No, I mean that bright creature I kneel before
this morning.  The one who leans close
enough to whisper: what else binds us
together but that coincidence
of light we call our selves?

I love this poem

The number one thing in acting is honesty: If you can fake that you've got it made.
