The Mirror
All that you are
All that you see
Everything about you
Is reflected in me
Reverse intentions
See just who you are
Into your soul
To your deepest scar
They call me the mirror
I'm one who reflects
All that you hide
All you reject
They call me the mirror
You cannot break
The hold of my hand,
My grip, my embrace
You cannot escape me
For i am inside
The very heart of you
Where nothing can hide
Open eyed I see
Your darkest corners reached
I am your shadow,
I mimic what you breached
They call me the mirror
One who reflects
All that you hide
All you reject
They call me the mirror
You cannot break
The hold of my hand
My grip, my embrace
I shine the light upon you
As you so intently gaze
Into the depths within you
Setting your soul ablaze
The hell inside you screaming
The light it shines so bright
The mirror always reflects
What needs to be set right
They call me the mirror
One who reflects
All that you hide
All you reject
They call me the mirror
You cannot break
The hold of my hand, my grip, my embrace
Yes, they call me the mirror
One day you will see
All lain before you
As you made it to be
Reflections and truth
You try to deny
Open to me
As i watch you cry
Your days will be numbered
Your nights filled with pain
Your future so distant
With false promises made.
They call me the mirror
For your truth i see
As i show to the world
Which you chose to be
