White light
strikes
Ice blue eyes,
Smooth skin
Lipstick smeared
Blood red
Milk teeth
Glinting

Look left
A line
Of smiles
Reach
Into infinity

Look right
A strand of
Tousled hair
Caught
Momentarily

Look straight ahead.

The mirror
Holds its secrets
Never lies.
Across the years
Traces
My made up
And my naked
Mortality
