Homework Post 19: Poem

(A Sonnet, I wrote this before I read that thing you said to someone who asked what type of poem we should write. And I liked it so I'm not going to change)

Mirrors  

Able to make imperfections enhance
 

coming away happy is unlikely. 
Never quite the same upon second glance 
it will make you rethink its loyalty.

Indirectly, the reflections murder
 

by manipulating society. 
Teasingly it asks, still want that burger?
A photo shop induced anxiety.

To question its views though, no one daring 

despite some distortion at its surface. 
Believing lies, and soon second guessing 
people kill themselves inside without trace.

Whilst razor sharp edges have ways to cope
 

your own insecurities hang up rope.
