Mirror without you there is no hope,

Pieces never tell you the whole story,

Safety glass still breaks,

Is just that it doesn't shutter,

Sees everthing but quite often thre is little to see

The mirror shows i cant deny its me thought im older, greyer, heavier with the weight of time added to my heart,

The worries tgat bowed my shoulders.

I was stretched to the edge of myself, to worlds i never dreamt of.

My soul can not now remember who i was back then, though now she greets me warmly,

For I came home to myself in the fierce midday sun.

I came home to myself though shadows, the darkness, the light.

I sit easy in this skin, sleep in peace.by farouk
