In my dream-
there is a broken mirror
it is so gorgeous and wood-framed
but is shattered.
It stands in an ancient room and is beyond repair.
The mirror a reminder
of beauty
that is fading, or perhaps a death.
Oh, it could be grief, decay and withering away.
I have plenty of that within my soul,
or it could be accepting aging
represented by that ancient room,
as nothing is forever in this life.
Oh, I am afraid of this dream as it is full of unknown,
let me fly back now to my cozy bed
a girl sleeping . . .
