Reflection

I looked straight into its eyes It stared back at me I saw the pain in them Tears brimming, ready to break it's banks Signs of a break down The silence inside the room A perfect scene for loneliness I could feel the emptiness Yet there were two of us Only one made a sound It suddenly broke into tears That was my worst fear I tried to wipe them but all in vain My hands slid over its body Did the tears make it slippery? Memories racing through my mind And then it was just me All alone in that room My companion had gone Gone after I moved from the mirror
