The Looking Glass:
Looking at the mirror
What do I see
A shadow looking at me.
With wondering eyes, crazy thoughts
Silent whispers, faint voices
Crafty hands, wicked ways.
How I hate this gaze
Its like I am in a daze
Going through a phase.
I am not at all amaze
Wicked ways never pays
I have to escape from this maze
Before I set myself a blaze.
Looking in the mirror
I can't believe this is me
Mischievous heart, heavy burdens
Crafty soul, I need to get a hold.
Before I loose my soul
I need to aim towards a goal
I need to take control
I don't want to be on parole
Nor find myself buried in a manhole.
