Mirrors Reflection

Mirrors reflection

          This mirrors glass seems an immortal concept        
          When we disregard thoughts and deeds,                                
          But are those ghostly visions just shadows,    
          Forgotten images of what we were 

          Come softly shine thy gentle light 
          Over a mirror’s silent glow,
          Then s surely seems the glasses pane
          As an expression of what we were  

          Farewell to night’s reflections, 
          And good-by our mysterious past,
          And keep what’s left here chained and bound 
          To a picture of what we were

          From where resigns our mirrors glass
          Reaching for a bright tomorrow,
          Where all that wait near things forgot 
          Are images of what we were
