Sketch me your pain; I'll draw a breath. Tell me how all you have left is nothingness. And I'll step away from the mirror. (You hold so much.)

too many poems about seeing yourself in the mirror, no fresh insights here.

This one is fairly lucid though, like the little rhymes.

Mirrors are too often used. Maybe he saw his reflection in something else? Toilet water perhaps?
