Mirror, Mirror in my bedroom,
Faded image in shadowed gloom,
Reflecting the me that I can not see,
Dogma of beliefs of my true self,
Placed face down on the dusty shelf,
Reflection is gone believing that it’s wrong,
Shades drawn to hide the windows
Mirrors born by backs of shadows,
Cover images flee from false made beauty,
My mind know the truth of forms,
Carve in this ice that never warms,
Barely to carry on and never to truly belong;
No mirror, no picture, no painting,
No image to place to my ranting.

awwww....

Mirror Mirror facing me
What is it there inside I see?
Deeper than the ocean floor
Wider than the heaven's door
Nighttime dreams that want for real
Images seen, and felt, I seal
And take with me to places new.
Will in the dark a shadow do?
On walls surrounding, will I be
Relaxed in thoughts of only thee?

maybe....

Hi Gloom.
I see a shadowy room with a dusty mirror and no reflection. You put great images in my mind with this one. I like a lot!
