Truth in the Mirror

Mirror whispers, fog with my breath. Echoes in the glass, life or death. Promises broken, stitched with regret. A patchwork of lies, can't forget. Eyes stare back, pupils accuse. Truth's a blade I can't refuse. Truth in the mirror, Sharp and clear. Can't hide, it's always near. Reflect, deflect, the cracks appear. Truth in the mirror, the voice I fear. Facades crumble, dust in my hands. Built on deceit, weak as sand. Words I spoke, venomous threads. Spun my web, now it spreads. The man I see, a stranger's face. Chasing shadows, losing the race. Questions linger, answers blur. Who am I? Who was her? The glass won't lie, it's my curse. Truth in the mirror, Sharp and clear. Can't hide, it's always near. Reflect, deflect, the cracks appear. Truth in the mirror, the voice I fear. Lines in the silver, they cut like steel. Each one a scar, each one real. I paint my flaws stroke by stroke. Erase the lies I nearly choked. But every smear, a mark of shame. Truth in the mirror, it speaks my name.
