this is a sad poem, if i understood it right you have lost a child, through death? or maybe the child has been taken from you for some reason or another, there is a big emptiness in this persons heart. lonliness , fear of what tomorrow might bring.there is a brave face on the outside, like you say it can,t fool the mirror, the mirror only sees what it sees and not what we want it to see,i think you have written a very sad poem,and i hope that somehow sunshine may come back into your life.
respect
take care
