Mirror

Today I looked in the mirror and I liked what I saw.
It was all life and happiness glowing everywhere
Out of every fucking pore of my body.
It was the dream come true of a simple routine life.

But then I looked again
The mirror wasn't there anymore.
Reality had to knock on the door
And with its damn truth bring me back
To what life really is. At least to me.

Why would the mirror have to be changed?
Why in such a hurry?
Why? Why?
