Mirrored Glass
You smile at me, and you see that I gently smile back
I long to touch your hand and to hold it for all eternity
But there lies a wall between us
A glass wall which you can never penetrate
Because you do not even know it exists
And even if you did, you would never know how to get to me
I smile at you, and you easily smile back
I wish you could feel this suffering I feel inside of me
I wish you could save me from this perpetual hell
But you can’t
You can’t rescue me from this prison of mine
Because …
I cry, and you simply smile back
