MIRAGE

Mirror, mirror on the wall, 

isn't my face the fairest of all?

Mirror, mirror lie to me—

show me the girl I wish to be. 

Mirror, mirror what do you see

when you gaze into my being.

Mirror, mirror please tell me

that I am the daughter of a king. 

Mirror, mirror lie all you can—

tell me I befit an handsome man. 

Mirror, mirror tell me not

that I am a girl whose mind is in knots. 

Mirror, mirror why do they sneer, 

when I very much want them to cheer?

Mirror, mirror let them know—

show them the girl who is on the go. 

Mirror, mirror on the wall, 

am I not the fairest of them all?
