My Future Mirror

Four sharp edges hold one dream My reflection to see it would seem Look closer, squinting my eyes Familiar image, I quickly realize An outline of all I've always wanted Ones ideal hope- comfortly haunted Time is slow- locked in a stare Passioned moment, years of dispair I've thought this feeling compared to death row How my future was out of sight, so slow Is this really what I see? Is this my better half of me? Savoring this longed aspiration Efforts of controlling my emotion Explaining your my dreamed future How you were my only procure And your hands hold my fragile mirror And my love for you is much more clearer
