I’ve shattered too many mirrors
Making many years of luckless being
So I drown in shards of sorrow;
Impale me and leave me bleeding
Covered only by the darkness
Till morning burns my flesh away.

When brittle bones and dry marrow
Lay before your path of tears,
Crush them underfoot without looking down,
Don’t let the crunch build your fears
Of walking on the rough ground
Of pains and bloodstains on broken glass,
For like the time of darkness
It’s a path you’ll pass.

Gloom

There are tolls on that road -- and there are ways off it for the lucky to find. They're hidden behind some of those unbroken mirrors.

Professor,
I never look in the mirror in the morning.
LOL I look at the sun. Strong write.
