Mirror

Mirror

Oh, I don’t like the mirror in the bathroom – every morning
Every morning I see my decadent face – every morning
Who is this guy? Red eyes, night-style face, but likable

But, I don’t know who is this guy – in the mirror is an evil shadow
I see the eyes, but those are not mine, an unknown person 
He is grinning and saying, I am your fate, you will go to hell

I know it, I answered. Hmm, this is true, but the hell is heaven
for me, I have a ticket and a personal entry card. My new home
So, I am always safe. Heaven? Earth? Hell? All of them!

Wandering in life is an amazing feeling, no boards, just air
But my mirror! I am wanna destroy it! I am gonna do destruction!
I hate this mirror! Lie! This mirror is a lie! This is not mine! Lie!
The face from the mirror saying: You are the lie, I just show your life

No, I am not a liar. I just see you. You are the mirror. Distorted
I am not that person, you, the mirror are deliberately distorting.
Hmm, my shadow person is angry, because my life is a ghetto

Hmm, I clean the mirror, off vapor, off memory. Emotions gone
Dear mirror, give the right, answer to my life, not alike
The mirror said, there is no answer, drop me, and change me

New mirror said
I will follow you
No chance
Enjoy your fate

I looked around the bedroom under my bed closet etc. When I found nothing. I could not sleep i was awake that night. It felt like someone was there yet no one was only me. I find that scary. This dream i can not forget. My friend enjoy your day. /Darllene/e/

Hello Vilmos, Hi! oh, you have nightmares. they can be scary. I created a pom of being in a deep slumber. My cat beside me sleeping on my right side. On my left side i felt like someone laying beside me. I woke up quickly.

Dear Darlene! Where can I wake up in a dreamy world? Tell me, please. I sleep in a deep dream, I have gone down to the dream world of hell, Nobody can bring me back from there. Yeah
