Diamond Rain

I look into the mirror; I see what I want to see I see you I see you and I You love me, I guess… Perhaps I love you too At least I was happy… that’s what I wanted to see You were smiling still, but the mirror me started to cry I felt my own cheeks My real cheeks Warm and wet with my tears My knees buckled, I fell limp and cold As I cupped my face in my hands, a shower of diamonds fell They fell all around me I pick up the precious stones I cut my hand and I realize… No… they’re not jewels, only broken jagged glass The mirror was broken and you were gone You stepped out You moved on You walked right through me I grabbed your hand But to you I no longer existed You went to another mirror, to someone else, to where you belong Someone else saw what she wanted to see She saw herself with you And she was happy
