Shattered Reflections

SHATTERED REFLECTIONS
by Samantha

I wish I had a mirror,
For memories fade away.
To only look back
On yesterday's today.

To hold it in my hand,
To look, to see, to cry.
To wonder who I am
So I'd never wonder why.

To shine it on my soul,
And hope to see my heart.
To hold it there forever,
Until it falls apart.

To reflect it on the Earth
And undo all that's wrong.
To shine it on all people
And show them they belong.

I must lock it in a box
And throw the key away.
To keep it there forever,
For all eternity.
