Looking into Glass
Look beyond my eyes
 Tell me what you see?
 Is there pain?
 How about beauty?
 Passion surely must abound
 Flying all around
 You, the only viewer of me
 
 So much passion I’m fit to bursting
 Like a balloon
 Or a terrified scream 
 Into the dark
 
 The latter I think
 As no one can hear it
 Save my cold hearted killer
 And he’ll never want anything of what’s held beyond in this mirror
 
 Body’s aren’t much more then bottles
 And when you look back at me
 I can feel all that I dread
 Well up inside
 Fixed in tune with all that I need
 
 The sound of your breathing
 Is the strongest heroin
 That keeps my heart still beating
 
 You say you believe in infinity
 Like in a pair of mirrors
 I smile
 
 Can you spell believe without the lie?
 
 Irises like shields
 Or walls made of dark garnet and steel
 Forever I’ll kneel-
 But now I’m standing up
 Walking out on my own,
 But before I go
 Can I ask,
 How much of me did you really know?
 
 Not that I can blame you,
 Mirrors are full of naught but lies
 And mine happans to be, 
 Second to none
