Reflection

every time I look in the mirror, what you see, has made my reflection
your seeping thoughts a poisonous infection
I have become the darkness you foresaw
I am the hate that burns within the stars
when that girl stares back at me
I wonder who is she, what does she want with me
what happened to the innocence, that angelic soul
when did the Devil take his final hold
the darkness in her flows from deep within her eyes
the tears of pain masked with all the lies
so again I ask who is this girl is that is before me
where did she come from, will she rest for eternity
her dying words are spoken, lost in translucent waves
her happiness diminished, lost in youthful days
this reflection you have molded, contortion was the game
so here I am looking at the girl that is no longer tame
the mirror leads to no deception
I am the Devil's own reflection

I couldn't have illustrated "reflection" better than this. I completely familiarize with this piece in so many ways. Great write I will read it again. MD.

I feel the mirror always presents us with someone we don't like, someone we tend to fear or not have any relation to. They are a stranger, caught behind glass. As we are on the other side, staring back. They could possibly be our other half, the darker, more mysterious side. Someone we wish to be? Perhaps the one behind the glass wants to come to us and share our current life? The mirror holds so many questions that go unanswered...

Beautifully said. I feel this is the truth.
