The Mirror
By honesty_kills •
When i look in the mirror
only half of me i see
half of what i wanted to be
half of what i actually am.
my donimant half
my left half
shows clearly in the reflection
one eye
one shoulder
one wing spreading from my back.
the other side however
is barely visible
but simply outlined
in a shimmer of light.
one eye
one shoulder
one broken wing.
it is that half
that is dragging me down
deeper into this hole
"how can i fix this?!"
i scream into the night
then suddenly
it hits me
i have to find
what it is im missing.
the other half
of my soul.
i looked everywhere
im my dreams
my imagination
but then i see it
its on the other side
of the mirror
i just slipped
into the wrong side
of reality.
i smile
she smiles back at me
and takes me hand
and pulls me back.
away from
the mirror.
