Mirror, mirror on the wall,

Who is the fairest of them all?
Those who knew him 
Loved every inch of flesh that covered his sultry, sun-kissed skin. 

Day by day, his pale eyes whispered admirations to my heavenly appearance. 
He loves me,
I know he truly means it.

He talks to the water
Upon every passing hour. 
But does he know who I am?

I am the reflection
The curse set upon Narcissus.
He gazes upon me like a man gazes upon his lover.
Love at first sight.

Our love is the eternal heavens above us
Mysterious but true with an empowering passion to last forever.
I sure should secretly share my true self,
But we belong together.

Just one more reach
A simple breach into my home. 
Splash!

Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Where will you be when you fall too?
