Looking at My Reflection

Looking at My Reflection

Looking at my reflection,

I have to frown—

I’ve clearly gone and

Let you down.

You deserve a better

Face than mine,

Increasingly filled

With wrinkly lines.

You’ve borne my sighs,

Seen my youth,

Reflected every

Awkward truth.

So now I ask,

As looks have drifted,

Would you feel better

If I got something lifted?
