At a Mirror

A poem on agony and ecstasy

Photo by roungroat from rawpixel

First time by a mirror.

The ecstasy of knowing who the person looking back at me truly is.

The agony of knowing she still has to hide.

When do I get to shatter this box of mirrors? When does the looking glass dissolve into oblivion?

The woman trapped behind the glass aches to know.

This story is a response to Prism & Pen’s writing prompt The Agony and the Ecstasy.
