Mirror, mirror on my wall 💙

Fresh of fresh and wrinkle free, those days when nothing bothered me

Yet that was over fifty years ago when I was only ten or so

Going to school everyday apart from weekends with fun and play

Mirror you have watched me change from a cheerful child, how very strange

But there was you watching me change as my face did rearrange

Each and every day I looked into you doing all the little things that one does do

Brushing my teeth and combing my hair, and through the timelessness of time tho I wasn’t that aware

You saw me age with little creases here and there with that silvery white colour of my hair

Tho you never said a word when my moans and groans would be heard

As  I often tried my very best to hide the aging what a pest

Applying makeup to my face to mask the years and give it grace.

Yes my mirror, mirror on the wall I now realise that you have seen it all

Yet those wrinkles that I tried so hard to hide when I looked in my reflection, you never, ever lied
