She cannot see herself
as I see her.
Her mirror image rebels.
It dismisses her beauty,
refuses her desirability,
overrules her sensuality,
is cruel to her curves.
She finds herself wanting.
Whereas I
can only stare
and sigh
in awe.

She steams up
the mirror
with her breath
and writes his name.
Wiping the glass clean
with her sleeve
she sees herself
smiling
in the reflection.
