Reflection
by lee ann mcclure
your reflection in the mirror
what is it that you see
yourself I would imagine
what else could it be
if you could see clearly
what lurked behind that glass
would you want to know
or would you let it pass
knowing the very truth
as your stood right here
no going back after this
it won't all dissappear
evil is looking back at you
your demon on the other side
in a place you never knew
darkness that is far and wide
the stale stench of death
surrounds this tortured soul
to end its own existence
would be its ultimate goal
it doesn't know your luxuries
can only see it in your eyes
its life so full of misery
for its future as it lies
not human in its form
small beastly horrible creature
but compassion in its eyes
a truly notable feature
for it knows what lies ahead
until the day you die
nothing for it will change
and now you wonder why
why is it so compassionate
why did I not know
why do I have a demon
why until the day I go
its born to dark you to light
this is your connection
united until death
this is your reflection
