Mirror eyes, talking to me
Like the stars stooping low
There is a spark at my chest
As I watch my heart glow
I'm the ocean flowing free
Ripping through like a song
Mending my broken wings
I'll soon fly, it wont be long
Someday, the song will end
Somehow I'd trace the way
I'll now look carefully
I'll learn what each hour had to say
No need for a hidden cry
Loud lies can never be true
No matter what you try to hide
The mirror can always see through you
Thunder storms deafen me
The rain is here after the wait
With the pour comes the hope
That tiny drops can change my fate
You were the solid paper
To my dreams of molten ink
Your boat reached the shore
While mine was meant to sink
But she held on and fought the wind
Thus she learnt how to sail
She let out a long cry
It was of joy and not a wail
The mirror screams but never lies
May hide things you don't want to show
Facade after facade, blocking the view
No matter what, the heart does know
The face in the mirror understands
I can't make love out of nothing
The very fact that you still exist
Makes my everyday worth something
Like the stars stooping low
There is a spark at my chest
As I watch my heart glow
I'm the ocean flowing free
Ripping through like a song
Mending my broken wings
I'll soon fly, it wont be long
Someday, the song will end
Somehow I'd trace the way
I'll now look carefully
I'll learn what each hour had to say
No need for a hidden cry
Loud lies can never be true
No matter what you try to hide
The mirror can always see through you
Thunder storms deafen me
The rain is here after the wait
With the pour comes the hope
That tiny drops can change my fate
You were the solid paper
To my dreams of molten ink
Your boat reached the shore
While mine was meant to sink
But she held on and fought the wind
Thus she learnt how to sail
She let out a long cry
It was of joy and not a wail
The mirror screams but never lies
May hide things you don't want to show
Facade after facade, blocking the view
No matter what, the heart does know
The face in the mirror understands
I can't make love out of nothing
The very fact that you still exist
Makes my everyday worth something
P.S: I know I said no more poetry, but this one is a non heart broken one. I always keep my word.

The mirror speaks a thousand words when we lend an ear to listen. Yes, it knows all our secrets and may pass them to us with a grin.
ReplyDeleteShe learnt how to sail, she might be reaching the shore anytime soon.
