Mirror Mirror On the Wall
she doesn't understand
and waits for him to speak his mind
she wants to know what's in his heart
she doesn't know where they both stand
this waiting game is not her strong suit
still she refuses to upset the cart
she stops to think of what could be
it somehow doesn't make it easier
she thinks of how without warning
she lost her freedom
that instant she let go of her heart
falling for a man who was there but not
now she looks at her reflection
wondering if her destiny
is to remain cold and alone
with love just out of reach
