There he sat
In darkness and silence
The world was removed
In its own vague sense
He beheld an object
A looking glass on the wall
Ready for him
Ready for his call
There were two silhouettes
One dark, yet clear
The other grayish
As some lonely tear
It was his mind
Lost in its world of fantasy
Of who he is and
Who he used to be
Things are different now
For they passed a new law
To flee from himself
And lock his own door
In his hand nothing
In the glass, the world
The two silhouettes
And the dreams unfurled

This was magical, so sad and lonely but lovingly told. Great work

May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......

She says baby,
It's 3am I must be lonely,
When she says baby,
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes,
Says the rains gonna wash away I believe it.

I love you baby... always.*

loved the last four lines. pessimism or optimism, the choice is yours. (at least that's what i took from this) yet another wonderful piece.
