Mirror Mirror

Shattered glass, 
Scattered ‘cross the ground,
A soft, slow moan
Echoes all around,
Someone came through in the night
And took an ax to every image,
So when they looked into their mirrors,
They saw all their fears.

Shattered mirror on my wall,
Who’s the fairest of them all?
Oh, it’s not me,
No it’s not me…
To their knees they fall.
Shattered mirror on my wall…

Oh they fell,
Never saw the lie.
Tried to change,
Kissing joy goodbye.
But it was never good enough,
And it never change a thing.
Every crack, nook, and space,
They see their broken face.

Shattered mirror on my wall,
Who’s the fairest of them all?
Oh, it’s not me,
No it’s not me…
To their knees they fall.
Shattered mirror on my wall…

Oh, some saw through the lie,
Saw down to the cracks.
And it didn’t rule their lives,
They picked up their own ax.
Instead of falling to the ground,
They smashed their mirrors dow,
While all the fools
Screamed out loud

Shattered mirror on my wall,
Who’s the fairest of them all?
Oh, it’s not me,
No it’s not me…
To their knees they fall.
Shattered mirror on my wall,
Mirror, mirror on my wall,
Mirror, mirror

Those Who Go Unseen

it
A whisper washed
In roaring wind
A shadow cast away by light
Unheard unseen
Does it exist
No one knows
No one sees

it
Invisible
Or just not there
Not imaginary
No mind would try
Can nothing be a thing
Who knows
No one cares to look

it
Sees and hears
The laughing joy
The kissing love
The playing rough
The hopeful hearts
The broken souls
And feels none of it

it
Apart away
Unknown to all
Including it
Hide from the feeling
Hide from the laughs
For they do not know
it
