poetry #4: Mirror

You're broken!
The man said
As he breaks.

The broken figure
In front of him
Stares silently envious.

Were you not
The one who breaks?
Asked the figure.

He looks upset.
The man thought
As he breaks.

Were you not
The one they
Continue to break?

You smile, true
But your tears
You hide in fear?

Were you not
The unfortunate one
Who breaks and smile?

Try to pretend
As much you want
But that mask will crumble.

Cry, if you must.
Be angry, if you want.
But most importantly:

Don't forget yourself,
Do not forget.
Who you are.

Just something as I watch Black Bullet.. the hero and the villain made a truce.
