People-Mirrors

You know, there are people like mirrors,
They reflect other people's thoughts.
It's probably like a game of chance,
Reflect them by unknown persons.

They don't do what's right,
They just reflect someone's life,
And follow us unconsciously
Because that's how we used to live.

Someone has to show them,
Where is the light and where is the darkness,
Not just allow it to reflect,
And to see yourself in distorting mirrors.

People-mirrors don't have trust.
This feeling is simply unknown to them.
Such a person never missed
Opportunities to be a mirror.

You look at them and they are empty.
Your reflection is dim in them.
In their eyes there are only dead fires,
And instead of their faces, they have a white spot.

Go away, people-mirrors,
I don't like copies!
Go away, I didn't ask you here,
You are like a creature of laudanum!
