Reflectivity
A standard mirror hangs on a
Barren wall. It reflects an empty room
Where we used to dwell.
Many memories have once been
Contained within a lacquered golden
Frame.
Now they are contained in a different
Space of time and place
Within a covetous mind.
Eternally frozen yet moving
Forever.
To break a mirror may bring
Seven years of torment and shame,
But this destruction steals
Away my thoughts to shards and
Immutable fragments of
Before.
The Mirror
A doppelgänger
Stands where I am not.
Wearing a crooked smile
Just like me own.
He speaks without
Arousing suspicion.
No one even doubts
His peculiar mannerisms.
Only I see him within a pane of
Guilded glass…
He is me.
