Mirror Winner

Poetry

I won the argument

Reward silence

/

Celebration

By the window

Crying tears of destruction

Great job

/

There will be no sleep

Until I correct my prideful view

/

Forgot my manners

Abandoned my audience’s heart

/

Doesn’t feel like a victory lap under these heavy stars

Even they are looking away

And I won defeat

Wondering if you’ll cry yourself to sleep

/

Ego screaming happily

You won

You won

Just like I said you would

/

Thanks a lot

Everything I care about lost

Tricked again

While I spit at the mirror it laughs loudly

You won

You won.
