An Inner Reflection
Enjoy what little you see,
Tomorrow it may not be in close enough reach,
Hold it close keep it in a jar,
Place it under your pillow so you can embrace what you had,
And how far you kept it closed up on your shelf,
Let it breathe once in a while,
Before the life within it explodes
Leaving shards of the past scattered throughout your walls
Damaging every last chance to a future
And permanently blinding you from the present
The reflection you see inside is gone
And the contents any answer you may have
They are only answerable if you see your reflection on the glass
For the answers to any question is only known
If you can open your eyes and choose to see
